Skulls Galore
Perhaps unconsciously influenced by Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull, skulls are hot in Japan at the moment. They are everywhere. On t-shirts, accessories, bags, shoes, mobile phones. You can’t take a stroll on Japan’s cool streets without running into a few. Come and see some of the skulls we ran into this week.
Inspired by the stunningly creative street fashion that exploded on the streets of Tokyo and Osaka in the late 1990’s, photo-journalist Kjeld Duits launched JAPANESE STREETS in 2002. This makes JS one of the first fashion blogs on the net, and the very first to cover Japanese street fashion.
