Style Deficit Disorder

The Harajuku neighbourhood of Tokyo has become an international style mecca, a street-level fashion scene prowled by major designers looking for inspiration, and whose local, cutting-edge labels enjoy global cachet. Style Deficit Disorder is the first book to explore this remixed, fast-forward fashion hotbed, profiling its most daring and influential designers, labels, stylists, and shops. Featuring nearly 200 photos, essays by key Japanese fashion editors, and commentary by many western designers, this is a must-have, insider's look at an international fashion and pop culture epicentre, past, present, and future.
