A fashion phenomenon born in the underground clubs of Tokyo and Osaka has made its way aboveground. A mixture of high fashion and home-made ensembles, the Gothic and Lolita scene is one of the more bizarre hybrids of Japanese street fashion, boasting thousands of devotees who dedicate their lives to creating ever more flamboyant and original variations of this fused style. Featuring portraits and group shots of Japanese Goths and Lolitas both at home and in the urban centers of Tokyo and Osaka, Gothic & Lolita is a new and exclusive photography collection that celebrates the eclectic and bizarre Gothic street fashion of Japan's teens.
