Tokyo Swan 26: Harajuku Cosplayer



It's not uncommon on any given day of the week to see some truly awe-inspiring fashions while walking around Tokyo. In fact, one of the best days to see some of the more wacky and anime inspired costumes would be on a Sunday. Every Sunday in the Harajuku section of Tokyo, there's always a crowd of 'cosplayers' (short for costume players) who dress up either as anime/manga characters, or just exhibit daring fashion styles.

Harajuku itself, as I've previously mentioned, is one of the central locations in Tokyo to buy clothes. There are just roads and roads full of many different shops, and there's really something for everyone.

In this very episode, I take the camera into one of my favorite clothing stores found in Shibuya, to kind of show off the cool vibe and atmosphere of what it's like shopping for clothes in such a hip part of town. I hope you enjoy the experience!
