Harajuku style

If you came to see original and wacky "Harajuku" style dressing of Japan's youth, you will be sadly disappointed. They are few and far between, and definately hard to find out of the Tokyo area. In Harajuku itself, it is also not so prevalent. But there is one big concentration of them on the walkway bridge between Harajuku Station and the entrance nearby to Yoyogi Park. These attention-loving dress eccentrics have constumes ranging from the popular "Gothic Lolita" style to weird punk adaptations to original styles involving cartoon characters attached to their clothing and peircings on their body. However, they are there specifically to pose for tourists and have their picture taken. But don't worry, it's free!

If you are interested in purchasing and wearing this style for yourself, there are also many Gothic Lolita stores and shops selling original styles in Harajuku.
