Kjeld Duits About the Photographer

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.

@Kim: Yes, it was. I have seen many more expensive ones…

Very cool! I absolutely love these evening/night shots.
I was looking through some old FRUiTS magazines I have from the late 90s, and a lot of people were wearing buffalo shoes. Its coming back for sure! I think this is a more modern collaboration though, right? They still have the iconic super tall platform though! Tumblr kids are going crazy over super tall platforms right now….

@Lactose Intoler-Art: I absolutely love these evening/night shots. — Thanks. They are quite challenging because I only use available light, no flash. I still have some trouble with the white balance. Although, I kind of like the orange glow on Ryoko’s face here, I must admit. A more modern collaboration though, right? — Yes, I believe so. Good one, too!

@KD: hehe ^^ why did you wrote it? Was Ryoko the one who wrote it on the JS sheet?

A really beautiful person and indeed, such a face is priceless (Didn’t notice the comment either until Maria quoted it). It’s really the unusual cut of the T-shirt (or is it a top, I wasn’t sure… well the piece of cloth with the really big holes ^^) that makes this outfit absolutly eye catching. She combined it really well with the brightly coloured T-shirt below and her tights, socks and shoes. The accesoires match the outfit well, too. Gosh, it’s just perfect! I’m seeing these necklaces with a cross symbole a lot lately. They seem to be very popular right now.
All in all she makes a friendly and bright expression even though her clothes seem to be more rock / punk, which is often associated with being different and somewhat isolating oneself ( at least in Germany). But she manages to give this style a friendly and open atmosphere. I like it :-)

@Dörrie Banana: “ I’m seeing these necklaces with a cross symbole a lot lately. They seem to be very popular right now.” — They have been around for a while already. People here don’t really see them as a religious symbol. “Didn’t notice the comment either until Maria quoted it” — Maria is incredibly observant. I’ll try to sneak in comments like this more often, so you can find one, too. ^_-
