Japanese fashion snap photo

In the last few years, the Japanese fashion scene has been shifted from fashion magazines and famous brands to lead it, to the boys & girls in town to actually lead the “it” fashion of the time.

The Japanese fashion industry seem to watch and follow the phenomenon calling it as 、”Street Fashion” or “Real Clothes”. This shows on those snap shots taken by them on the street.

Let me show you some of the website that you can check out those fashion snaps!

Gucci 2007 Holiday Campaign to Benefit UNICEF

I saw the Gucci bags for the 2007 Holiday Campaign to Benefit UNICEF in the show-windows at Gucci Ginza.

While Salon Stone participates a benefit party or Madonna is planning for a charity live to appeal for saving Malawi next year, it is their third year, Gucci seems to be active with social contribution activities among those luxury brands.

Don’t you agree that it’s cool to be able to contribute the benefits by giving a bag for Christmas?
