Harajuku Halloween

Everyday Sunday is halloween for the Harajuku girls in the Harajuku District of Japan. For this group individual style is very important and they make a conscious effort to dress specifically to a certain style of clothing. The Harajuku movement began when teens thought to mix the common Japanese culture with that of a more western style. As popularity grew the style focused more on western fashion than traditional Japanese culture.

The Harajuku girl was first introduced into American pop culture when Gwen Stefani used them for backup dancers during her solo career. These four girls dressed in a mix of Kawaii, meaning "cute" in Japanese, and Decora style. While the girls were still very dressed up and styled there look was more westernized with the addition of mini skirts and Gwen Stefani's fragrance and fashion collection Harajuku Lovers.


The most common people who dress are usually teen age or young women.
