Last month I went to Hyper Japan in London. This was the first of this event and it was excellent.
It was an event to celebrate the culture of Japan so included fashion, food and pop culture such as anime/manga. There was a Fashion show by KERA magazine featuring famous Japanese lolita brands such as Angelic Pretty and Black Peace Now. An ‘Ambassador of kawaii’ (cute), Misaki Aoiki was also there (who I met and she was lovely) discussing J-fashion and signing copies of KERA.
Other things included Cosplay competitions, tons of stalls to buy various Japanese goods, a cinema and lots of nommy food. It was an excellent day and my husband spent most of it taking photos of cosplay folks. I was dressed as Amu Hinamori from Shugo Chara and had tons of folk taking photos of my costume which was fun.
Here are some pics…
I am a Japan obsessed, Earth loving hippy, fashion and costume designer extraordinaire. I will use this website to blog about anything (mainly Japanese) that I find and love, including fashion, art, design, music or anything odd and quirky. I am also working on my own collection that I hope to have up for sale on Etsy later in the year.
Please enjoy ^ ^
