Tokyo, Japan. Boasting the 2nd largest economy in the world, the influence is Worldwide. Japanese domestics include: Electronics. Technology. Automotive. Robotics. And Crazy Gameshows??? Japan truly is the epicenter of Innovation. Makes you wonder if Japan has anything else to offer, right? Hai! Well, they do. And its an unlikely export that is proving to be Japan's next major influence on the World - Fashion.

Tokyo creates and showcases some of the fiercest (sometimes extreme) fashion designs on the face of the planet. Just how influential is Japanese fashion? Its closer than you think. And you don't have to travel far to spot Japanese trends - in American fashion. Major US entertainers have already woven Japanese styles into the American fabric. Pharrell Williams opened up the Billionaire Boys Club | Ice Cream with Nigo of A Bathing Ape. Kanye West enamored over Ato Matsumoto design. Gwen Stefani : Harajuku Lovers is also a big hit that has gained tremendous momentum for women delving into Japanese fashion. And there is, of course, the phenomenon that is Simone Legno's Tokidoki. And you already know how I feel about Tokidoki!

But what do WE DO if we don't want to fall behind Japanese fashion, and want to be in-the-know of trends in Tokyo fashion today? The answer. Tokyo Street Style.

Tokyo Street Style not only keeps you updated with the latest Tokyo fashion, they deliver the fashion every week. From the trendiest areas in Japan: Harajuku, Shibuya, Omotesando, Daikanyama, and Ginza - see whats new on the streets of Tokyo fashion.

Want even more? For a very informative, in-depth look into Tokyo Fashion, I highly suggest reading the Tokyo Fashion Overview. They dig deep into the psyche of Tokyo fashion and its influence on the rest of the world.

I'm not against Japanese designs, but sometimes the designs are way out of the ordinary. Just like the camouflage designs by Aya Tsukioka. Check it out!
