Tokyo Fashion
A cosplay girl (pictured above), is one example of Tokyo fashion but of course not the only example. There are many different styles in Tokyo, some of which will be familiar, and others of which that may be totally alien to you.
Where can you buy clothes for a reasonable price in Japan? This is a challenge if you don`t know where to look.When we go back to Canada we complain to astonished Canadians that Canada is a very expensive country. They look at us incredulously, disbelieving, knowing that we just came from Japan. However many things including fashion, need not be expensive if you buy on sale, know where to shop, and wait for the right time to buy. I think expats in Japan, and even Japanese themselves like to talk about how expensive things are. It is kind of a game. I think things were expensive during the bubble economy years, but that was 20 years ago. Sales occur with the seasonal changes like elsewhere in the world, and there are other occasions for sales. One of them is the winning of the Japan baseball series. The sponsor of the team holds a sale at their department store--if the team happens to be owned by them. As well you can be happy with your fashion purchases by following the advice we have for men and women on our Japan clothing page. From Tokyo fashion to Japan Living (home)
