I have always had a strong appreciation for Japanese Fashion, and with the recent Runway shows I have seen alot of Japanese influence seeping in to Western Cultures sense of fashion with bright neon color palettes, techno inspired street wear. Japanese fashion has been very influential the past 20 years with designers like Yohji Yamamoto and Issey Miyake to name a few.
Also, with Japanese Fashion week approaching, the Barbican Museum in London that will be featuring an exhibition entitled: Future Beauty, Japanese Fashion 1981-2011.
