Tokyo Fashion Week 2011 S/S

The 11th edition of Tokyo Fashion Week – officially called “Japan Fashion Week in Tokyo” (JFW) – has begun. The JFW 2011 Spring/Summer Collection runs from October 15 – 24, 2010. This season’s incarnation of JFW feels a little different than previous Tokyo Fashion Weeks. While there are still more than 35 brands taking part in the official JFW shows, more designers than usual are holding non-sanctioned runway shows, exhibitions, parties and other events. This mix of official and unofficial events is helping to create a little bit of mayhem, making for a more vibrant and unpredictable Fashion Week – something we applaud.

I just came back from Tokyo, it was my first time in Japan, and one of the things that surprised me the most was Tokyo's great sense of style!
I grew up in Italy so I know European style pretty well, and I feel bad to say that living in Canada I probably forgot what it means to walk on the street with people who actually know what style is.
This is why I'm sure Tokyo fashion week will grow up at lot and will become one of the main fashion event.
Thank you for sharing.

BTW, my last post it's about Fall-Winter trends by Italian designers. Drop by if you can...
