Young Japanese girls and women inhabit the trendy areas of Harajuku and Shibuya in Tokyo. Here some dress and make in outlandish but beautiful styles, some too far out to want to duplicate. Why? Escape perhaps. Right in the middle of the crowds these girls are invisible ... except perhaps to the photographer. Guy Vinciguerra is one such photographer and his stark disturbing pictures remind one of a modern version of Japan's traditional kakubi theatre.

Nice book, wrong title,
By
This review is from: Cosplay (Paperback)
Book is not bad, though I've seen better ones (like Fruits).
But one thing that is specially wrong with this book is it's title. There's almost no cosplaying at all on this book (save for maybe a couple of pics). It's mostly a collection of gothic and gothic-lolita street fashion than cosplay. Doesn't even cover all styles in Harajuku, just the ones with darker tones. Also, I must say that on it's 60 pages, almost a third of it is text... some pages have something like 3 lines of text and nothing else (poetry, or whatever). Anyways, if that's your kinda thing, it's a nice book. Just wasn't what I expected from it's title.
