Modes of Self-Expression
Japanese fashion is a treasure-trove of various styles. There are all kinds of different looks to choose from, from ultra-cute kawaii styles to cutting-edge street fashions. People can pick and choose the styles that suit their preferences and personality best. And in Japan, that includes kids! Japanese children have their very own fashions, every bit as cool and sophisticated as regular fashions for grownups.

Japanese kids have a world of information at their fingertips, with television, the Internet, and specialist magazines telling them what is in style and giving them all the hints they need to put together their own look. And of course, kids also enjoy exchanging information with their fashionable friends. Fashion is popular with lots of moms too, who enjoy picking out stylish clothes for their kids to wear. Some mothers and daughters like to hit the town in matching outfits.
