Tokyo street style

 

 

Photographs out of the second book by Shoichi Aoki: FRESH FRUITS.
Shoichi Aoki began documenting street fashion in Tokyo in the 1990’s when he noticed a marked change in the way young people were dressing. People were combining high fashion, elements of traditional Japanese dress with homemade ensembles, do-it-yourself-style. Aoki also established the monthly cult magazine FRUITS which soon caunted a great number of international followers.
