I attended my third Harajuku Fashion Walk recently, so I wanted to share it with you all. If you are not familiar with Harajuku Fashion, it includes a variety of fashion styles: Multi-colored hair, goth, punk, rock, kawaii (cute girl), lolita (European and Victorian-style clothing), gyaru (tan dark skin and wild sexy clothing and makeup), Japanese traditional clothing mixed with Western clothing (traditional Japanese clothing, such as a kimono and yukata, paired with Western clothing like jeans and heels), cosplay (dressing as anime characters), and Visual Kei styles. If you want to learn more about the history and spread of Harajuku Fashion, I wrote a blog post article about it here: Harajuku Fashion From Japan That Has Spread To The U.S. and Canada – Lolita, Visual Kei, Kawaii, Gyaru, Cosplay Fashion.
This Harajuku Fashion Walk took place down by the Waterfront in Washington, DC. The walk started at a coffee shop and then we walked to Pralines Bakery for some sweets: macaroons 🍬.
