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.

…I always wonder, what exactly do the models think of these creation? “That goes over my face?”

Since Daphne Mohajer-Va-Pesara is friends with Gon, maybe it will be easier for you to know what her next projects are. It would be great to keep an eye on her works, even though she is not Japanese. ^^
Kawasaki is my favorite, it’s like he knew how those designs were going to look on the runway even before making them.

@Maria: Daphne and I are also in contact, so I will definitely keep my eyes on her work. I really love her creations. Kawasaki’s work is intriguing. The skirt in the top photo of his collection is super cool. I’d love to see that on the street.
