I never knew that those fancy wears origin was Harajuku, well, they do say that Harajuku sends the hot trends so maybe it does makes sense?
Anyway, from my perception, I personally do not think their clothes are not cosplay, it is a fashion, although it does seems like one of cosplay. Those fashion do not choose a particular character, it does have a motif. For instance, the “Gothic” is based on black, red color and dress with lase; its origin comes from England and motif of vampires (if I remember correctly that is.)
Tomorrow is last day of class, and I lack in sleep from last night’s hard work.
I hope the success for everyone’s presentation in my class, and nice summer vacation for Tuesday class’s ladies and gents. :)
I’ve missed the chance to say, but thanks for the planning. I will be looking forward to the next opportunity. :)
