Fruits

This is a collection of 45 Tokyo street fashion portraits from Japan's premier fanzine. Fruits was established in 1994, by photographer Shoich Aoki, initially as a project to document the growing explosion in street fashion within the suburbs of Tokyo. The magazine has since grown to cult status and is now avidly followed by thousands of Japanese teenagers who also use the magazine as an opportunity to check out the latest styles and trends. The average age of the kids featured in the magazine is between 12 and 18 years and the clothes they wear are a mixture of high fashion - Vivienne Westwood is a keen favourite - and home-made ensembles which, when combined, create a novel, if not hysterical, effect. This collection of postcards represents a documentation of the changing face of street fashion throughout the 1990s.

    Fruits by Shoichi Aoki

    The cool little book in fluorescent coloured plastic contains a selection of the same pictures as the book from Phaidon. I already owned the book version when i bought this postcard version of aventgarde street fashion portraits from Tokyo. At first the people in the photos seem to be just funny looking, but at a second glance your notice the seriousness and effort that have been put into the style of the participants. They actually look pretty cool!! I used the postcards as.... of course stylish postcards but came to like them a lot and had 8 of them framed and hang them on the wall.
