Fucked Up Japan

From a secret location in Tokyo, the CandyFruit clothing resident maids threw a xmas bash in the most hideously cute way. Check out their most famous duo, Hina Ichigo, who even have a cd out.

Attendees were mostly invite only as well as random paying customers of the otaku variety and some couples, each person paying around $80 for the food an festivities.

For those of you who don’t know, Candy Fruit are the leading designers on Maid and Princess dresses for the emergent fashion trend called “Kawaii-kei”, which literally means “Cute Style”. To keep up on some of the past and current fashion trends in Japan, I recommend the fairly short but mostly visual book I recently got a hold of entitled Japanese Schoolgirl Inferno.

“Japanese Schoolgirl Inferno: Tokyo Teen Fashion Subculture Handbook”

Photos and video via cscoutjapan.com, who are giving away a free copy of Hina Ichigo CD to one “lucky” winner who comments on their blog. In fact, Secret Japan might win it since we pinged them from this post~ So keep your hands off!

Lastly, from myself Jamie, and the man behind the scenes who pays the bills here @ Secret Japan, we would like to wish you all a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year, and may all your xmas perversions come true. Thank you joining us and we’ll be back again very soon with a fantastic new professionally-designed theme sneaking us like a stealthy loli-ninja into the underworld of Japan in 2008!
