ICE CREAM on Your Head

Mercibeaucoup Spring/ Summer 2008

When you think of Japanese fashion, most think of multiple layering, cute patterns and innovation. This is exactly what mercibeaucoup do time and time again.

Their Spring/Summer 2008 collection in Tokyo’s new Mid Town complex played simply to expectations. It looked like they recycled many of their ideas from previous seasons and the womenswear included dungarees, girly colorful polka dots, and lots of delicate star patterns.
Always theatrical, the mercibeaucoup models pranced around the stage in kooky make-up with huge grins and tried their best to enliven the subdued fashion week attendees.
The menswear consisted of long cardigans, baggy denim and lots of soft material. This label are the kings and queens of casual and this collection pleased their hardcore fans but left many thinking that maybe Eri Utsugi’s brand is a one trick pony.

CUTE LITTLE DEVILS

Japan has so many fashion magazines that you can spend weeks reading them all. Ko-akuma Ageha, launched last year October, is one of the newest ones. “Ko-akuma” means “Little Devil”…

Koakuma Ageha targets women between 18 and 22 who feel they have graduated from reading egg. It attracts women who want to look glamorous and sexy with a tid bit of style. Attracting men is a major consideration when they choose their clothes. The magazine’s subtitle is “Seduction and Desire Book for Beautiful Gals Who Want to Become Cuter.”
The magazine covers hairstyle, makeup, manicure and fashion that you see in Tokyo’s Shibuya, Shinjuku, Roppongi, and Ikebukuro areas.
One of the styles, that Koakuma Ageha promotes is Hime-kei or Princess-look: blonde curls as seen on anime princesses, frilly dresses and accessories that have been enhanced with glittering rhinestones and fake pearls, and eyes that are made up to appear bigger. Hime-kei is a sexy Barbie mixed with the cutest anime princess, although occasionally it resembles lollita fashion as can be seen in the photographs of PRINCESS Day’s, a blog by Himeka Shirosaki.
This is cute with an edge. Dresses accentuate cleavage and miniskirts show off sexy legs. But it goes way beyond that. Only jewelry and bags with famous brand names are bought, nails and mobile phones are elaborately decorated, while diets are religiously adhered to. Everything is aimed at appearing as cute and sexy as possible. Japanese men? They love it!

Japanese Street Hair

What a crazy thing to do with hair? It looks like bringing catwalk's attributes to streets.....but anyway, two thumbs up for Japanese. They could create something new and be a pioneer in some things....
