JAPANESE STREETS covered the last HFW: see the photos and a video clip of the 7th Harajuku Fashion Walk. We also took many detailed photographs of some of the people that participated.

About the Author

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.

Hi, i wanted to ask if anybody knew where they usually announce the next date of the harakuku fashion walk, I couldn’t find it anywhere and the link above isn’t working… Would be nice to know :)
Thanks!

Nyurah: The next one is on January 27th. Meet at 14:00 in front of the Takeshita Dori exit of Harajuku Station. I usually announce it at the JAPANESE STREETS twitter feed, but you should also be able to find it on the HFW feed. It doesn’t look like the HFW site will come back up soon…

@Kjeld: Thanks a lot! I tried to look it up, but i had quite a hard time finding it.. Once again you were really helpful :)
I hope that the official HFW website will work again soon.

@Nyurah: Yes, it is difficult to find the info. The next Harajuku Fashion Walks are March 24 and May 26, so I’m afraid that you just miss it. Unless you arrive a bit earlier…

@Kjeld: Oh no!! And I was really looking forward to it, believing my hopes may come true D;
Well, can’t change that, I already booked the tickets quite some time ago, so…
But I’ll keep on hoping that the dates will simply change… :P
