The good thing about living in a smallish city..
..is that it's easy to find the "fashion people" and make friends with them.
Sendai has an amazing underground fashion scene and so many people who make their own pieces.
Everyone seems to know everyone, so every once in a while the people from the cool hair salons hook up with the people from the hip boutiques who get in touch with the top DJs etc.
Then they call their favourite white girl, Miruku! ;)
This fashion show was held in a small nightclub and it had a really intimate feel.
The theme was something like "Fairytale Wedding" and it's very haute couture, only to be worn by the bravest of the brave!
We were all grooving to the DJs, then just sat down where ever we were to watch the fashion show, so the shots aren't great...oh well!
Starting with a dark bride.
I love the details!
The Indecisive Groom
The main event starts with Pirorin, who used to work at my salon. The girl has the most amazing fashion sense I've ever seen.
Part of the show was Kanabu (my favourite assistant stylist <3 ) arranging her hair.
Then she removed her cloak and the groom reappeared.
Another bride, lucky guy...
Finale
Then we partied until morning!
Thanks for helping me out on Twitter everyone, I'm beginning to get the hang of it now.
Also, I said I'd do a giveaway when I hit 50 followers, now I'm over 70.
I'm sorry, I'm awful. Thanks for following and I'll get cracking on the giveaway this weekend, cross my heart!

COOL! I'm loving the show, I wish I was there :D! I'm happy you are showing me some of the underground scene I mean I love brands but sometimes it great to see work made by ppl before they become big. Thanks for the great work ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is really neat, it's an experience that most people would never have the chance to get for sure. It's so wonderful you are connected to the fashion people in Sendai and can share these great events with us. Thank you!

ReplyDeleteSasa - I don't know EVERYONE! I wish I did XD But it's nice to get invited to these events and pretend that I know about fashion!
ReplyDeleteBianca - I agree! I like street snaps, but many of those girls just follow trends. Shows like this bring you something completely different!
ReplyDeleteさらまり - I want to get more involved, then I can show you all more interesting pictures!
ReplyDeleteWinnie - Hey, from your blog it looks like you have your own fashionable set of friends. You don't need mine!
ReplyDeleteAicha Amano - I agree, maybe we can't wear these clothes! But it's very interesting to see the designer's ideas.
ReplyDeleteShmuberry - Whaaaaaaaat? I can't believe you weren't modelling! You should have been!
