Introduction and details of Harajuku
Dress characteristics When interviewing Yasunari Mihara in the fifth anniversary album of 2009 1626, he described it this way: "Harajuku is the kind that sticks to its own style and is not influenced by anyone." This is in contrast to Shibuya, which is imitated in clothing and behavior.
"Bamboo Shoots" is a juvenile group with unique costumes that began to appear in Harajuku Walking Kingdom in the summer of 79. The etymology comes from the original custom of "decorating bamboo shoots" in Harajuku. They are wearing primary color cloak-like coats, bloomers, business cards, badges, hair clips, dolls, and white sports shoes under their feet. Opened the atmosphere of male decoration. At that time, rich adults could dance in discotheques every night, while poor high school students had to wait until Sunday to spend extra energy on the roadside. They put the dance clothes in bags and changed them in Yoyogi Park near the performance venue. Later, some teenagers dancing on the roadside were found to be red stars by the media, which reached the most popularity. Later, the popularity of bamboo shoots finally began to decline, but the tradition of singing by the roadside was endless.
What is popular in Harajuku is mostly the clothing of the youth volunteer band. These clothes with exaggerated colors and strange styles will be scolded by parents or neighbors when worn near home. But in Harajuku, no matter how exaggerated they are, there is no problem. Therefore, the clothes worn here naturally have the nature of exhibition or performance, and the collocation of clothes itself reflects a sense of beauty and a sense of craftsmanship. Every ordinary person can participate at will, judging from the attention he gets. This is why Harajuku's fashion is more colorful and exaggerated than Shibuya's. In the 1990s, the popularity of Harajuku finally broke away from the track of imitation and took a new step towards creating a unique fashion culture.
Development course Harajuku, Japan is a representative of street culture in Tokyo and a famous "Young People Street" in Japan. It can be said that Harajuku is a place for young people to show their individuality, especially the popular antique works and mix and match styles. Harajuku, together with daikanyama and Shibuya, is considered as the representative of street culture in Tokyo. You can see many well-dressed young people in the street, including cosplay and pure Harajuku (note: cosplay is different from Harajuku). They dragged boxes with clothes and gathered in the street beside the intersection in droves, not for business activities, but spontaneously. One store has put up the signboard of "the lowest price in human history". A dress costs 30 yen, less than two dollars. In some shops, a rag costs tens of thousands of yen, so we can't judge their value by its appearance. In Tokyo, young people have endless fashions, endless fashion halls and endless personalized shops.
According to age and taste, Harajuku and daikanyama are the two hottest young and fashionable places in Tokyo. The internationally famous Qingshan District is the stage of high fashion, which is another matter.
Harajuku, which feels young and lively, has expanded its territory in the past two years and developed a new world of "Riharajuku". In order to find fresher personalized shops, fashionable men and women with keen sense of smell have gone to Harajuku to show their unique personalities in elegant fashion shops scattered on the narrow streets of daikanyama.
The pursuit of fashion has spread from Harajuku block in Tokyo, and even another young man in a corner of Asia will be shocked by his costume. The hipsters shocked photographer Aoki Masaichi with their imaginative collocation. He founded several of the most popular street shooting magazines in Japan-Men's Tone and Women's Fruit, and was called the godfather of street shooting. Near Riharajuku's shop, there are a bunch of people who can take pictures casually or simply dress up. Hipsters are used to dressing up, visiting Riharajuku, or going to Omotesando Hills Mountain to find some good goods. Everything they want is here, such as catwalk, street shooting, warehouse stacking, except scarves bought in France, all from here. In Zhuxiatong area, snack bars, lovely and cheap grocery stores and clothing stores are a paradise for middle school students. A little personality or high school students and college students will go to Riharajuku, a concentrated shop hidden in residential areas, to find their favorite clothes; When they grow up, excellent storefronts near Omotesando Hills Hill Street are prepared for them. In Omotesando Hills Hills, the shopping center designed by Tadao Ando stretches for 250 meters along the street, and there are all kinds of international first-line brand goods. Further on, it is the castle peak with high-end brands.
This block is all short blocks, and within twenty or thirty meters, there will be a crossroads composed of vertical and horizontal alleys. It used to be a residential area, and most of the houses facing the street were rented out to young people doing business. Their brand is the most common but best-selling Japanese style, and almost every Japanese girl has lovely clothes in her closet-even those girls with hard rock style. In their culture, it is a tradition to choose different dressing styles according to time, place and object, which was passed down from mother as early as kindergarten. Sato's suitcase is full of design drawings, clothes samples taken in Japan, new clothes samples, color swatches and tape measures. According to the plan, he usually stays in Hong Kong for four days and has no time to go shopping. There are more than a dozen clothing trading companies in Hong Kong that cooperate with them. Every time you go, you should choose a few according to the demand of new products in the season, and then visit them one by one.
The earliest street fashion in Tokyo originated here. The Japanese themselves openly expressed their pride in Harajuku. They enlarged the black and white photos of decades ago and hung them on the side of the road. They are street photographers with shoulder pads and heavy makeup. High-end residential areas, glamorous designers, and dazzling people in this area. At that time, it was a fashion paradise in Harajuku, with no cars and frequent concerts. Young people gather in twos and threes, shop assistants and beauticians. They are the source of vitality in Harajuku. No place in Tokyo can tolerate so many confident children in strange clothes. In other blocks, they may only wear school uniforms. However, people living in this block and the police have a headache for the influx of young people-at the peak, Harajuku Pedestrian Street gathered 6,543,800 people. This pedestrian street was completely abolished on 1996 after it existed for 20 years. But "freedom", the most important gene of fashion, stayed in Harajuku-this is really remarkable.
Street activities are unconventional. Harajuku Station has only one entrance and exit, and the exit is Takeshita Hall. Most shops in Noboru takeshita are open from 1 1 am to 8 pm. If a freak forces you into their store, you can refuse.
When you meet Harajuku people, you can invite them to take pictures. Most of them are welcome and proud!
Sunday is the busiest day. You must visit the flea market and Yoyogi Park in Meiji Jingu. It would be a pity to miss it. Harajuku is the trend vane of Japan, and the streets and alleys are crowded with young people who are "pilgrimage". Besides searching for new clothes in Harajuku, many old clothes are also worth seeing. There is a flea market on Saturday and Sunday, and there are shops that are not limited by weather and time. The second-hand fashion has been blown to Hong Kong, but the scale and style of second-hand shops in Hong Kong are certainly not as good as other gangs.
Someone once said that in Harajuku, we can see the Japanese tradition and pioneers meet in harmony and live in peace. Yes, whenever we see passers-by visiting Meiji Jingu in kimono intertwined with Harajuku people on Sunday, we will always have another profound experience of Harajuku. Japanese teenagers are under the pressure of life and study. They hate that this society is always full of stereotyped frames, so they try to find spiritual breakthroughs and escape. Harajuku Street has just become their unconventional place. Harajuku is the most active place for young people in Japan. In a corner not far from Harajuku MRT Station, there are always groups of young people, mostly girls, appearing here in black and pink on the Jingu Bridge at the entrance to the outer end of Meiji Jingu. Every Sunday at noon, I can always see many girls in colorful clothes coming here. The girls here are dressed in strange clothes, some dressed as doctors and nurses, with white coats and headphones hanging around their necks, and some with colorful feathers between their hair tips, which are reminiscent of birds and animals. Is it Lan Fenghuang? Or a crow? Some have dyed red hair, dressed in red and black, and wearing countless ropes. Others have vertical and horizontal stripes on their faces, or deliberately leave a few uneven colors under the eye shadow. Some of them wear lipstick in colors like electric switches and black lips. Are they the incarnation of Satan? Is it a ghost resurrection? It is inevitable that people's thoughts shuttle through the universe. Blue and black fly away, I wonder if the image of "Lan Fenghuang" in Jin Yong's imagination is so? Lying on the street freely, regardless of other people's eyes.
At the beginning of imagining space, I felt a little scared to see people dressed as monsters. I feel that they look like devils, and I am worried that watching too much will lead to "death"! Later, I found out that they are not terrible, but also friendly and willing to be photographed! These young girls, ranging in age from 12 to 16, are mostly middle and high school girls. Most of these girls' clothes are made by themselves, and only a small part is bought in a special clothing store in Harajuku Street. Here, there is only one rule: there is no rule. Participants have such a free creative space, they can do whatever they want, and they are free! Clothes can be colorful, hair can be colorful, makeup can be varied, and your creativity can be fully exerted. There are whitewashes of demon governance and simple rock costumes for everyone to enjoy.
Japanese newspapers have read such reports that Japanese teenagers are under the pressure of life and study. They hate that this society is always full of rigid frames, so they try to find spiritual breakthroughs and escape. This is their unconventional field and their own relaxed zone. They don't need to care about other people's eyes at all. Whether they are lying, sitting or standing, everything is slack except fatigue! So at noon on Sunday, you won't miss the dazzling crowd on Jingu Bridge. Invisible, this is already a scene on the temple bridge, a tourist attraction, a way for young people to exert their creativity and a channel for girls to vent their boredom. More importantly, they have shaped a new generation of alternative culture in Japan.

As long as you walk out of Harajuku Station, which is built in imitation of English country style, you will see a pair of striking signs, which have become the classic symbols of Harajuku. Crossing a path that is always crowded with people is a hot spot that you must have seen in newspapers and magazines.
A few years ago, Takeshita Tomoto in Harajuku mainly sold celebrity photos and idol boutiques. With the decline of celebrity boutiques, many boutique grocery stores were replaced. Of course, there must be a specialty store of Harajuku people selling colorful and exaggerated exotic clothes and silverware. Most people dare not wear it.
