Ganguro Street Fashion

December 18, 2008 · 34 comments

This look intrigues me and it’s a great example of the extremes  Japan has to offer. The look is called Ganguro (ガングロ) and it’s an alternative fashion trend made popular by Japanese girls since about 2000.

Currently,as far as i’ve seen, Shibuya and Ikebukuro are the best spots to see chicks wearing this get up. I tried to get a photo with a few of these girls about 18 months ago but was promptly told to “get the fark out” to put it politely.

Ganguro

Ganguro starts at school for some which certainly adds some colour to sports day.
