| Tokyo street fashion is influnenced from many styles and subculteres from around the world. In the 80s many numbers of street performers and extravagantly dressed teenagers gathered around Omotesando and the street that goes through Yoyogi Park on Sundays when the roads were closed off to traffic. However they were again reopened to traffic in the 1990s, and teens stopped meeting there. Today there is a revival in the amount of young adults dressing up and hanging out in Harajuku, most of them now congregate on the bridge, across the railway tracks from Harajuku station to Yoyogi Park. Everything from British street punk fashion of the 70's, goth, and many other fashions from around the world have all moulded the teenage style in Tokyo today. |
