10 trends we have seen in the future, that is, Japan

Walking through the streets of Tokyo implies, in addition to experiencing immense happiness, monitoring your steps not to collide with the millions of people who walk through their streets while looking embobada the looks that the staff carries.Working in fashion and not bringing a lot of valuable information in the form of trends is literally impossible: the clothing codes are repeated - so they are easy to assimilate - and the styles seem taken out of the future.

But, eye, because the reference to the future does not reside in their madness, which one thinks when he has not yet set foot in Japan.The conclusion that is drawn a few hours after walking through the neighborhoods of Shibuya, Shinjuku and Harajuku - and for Dover Street Market Ginza, of course - is that the Japanese, and especially the Tokyots, have a subtlety and elegance when makingHis styles that are very large, as from another planet, as of many years of evolution.

Of all the garments, accessories, marks and stylistic combinations that our eyes have seen - and many visits to the sanctuaries and temples, in this case, of fashion -, we have extracted 10 trends seen in Japan that we can (and we want) to introduceIn our daily look.From its predilection for camel color to wide silhouettes that declare the death of the pitillo, through the massive use (and absolute confirmation) of two accessories that are already everywhere.Big (Trends) in Japan!

This was one of the great trends that we confirmed after 2 hours in the city: Chinese and camel pants in general are by T-O-D-A-S parts.Tokyots feel absolute predilection for a specific silhouette that, in addition, is one of the trends of the year: high waist and wide leg O'Wide leg '.Its use manual is simple, zero artifice, and entails the recovery of the belts, that accessory that we have a little forgotten and that promises to return to our lives - also thanks to the industrial designs - as the slopes did in their day.

When we saw Bella Hadid with the neon backpack of a single handle of Prada, we already imagine that these two united details - mode that follows the trends at feet together and marks that establish them - was not pure coincidence.In Japan we have not only confirmed that the Riñoneras are a massive trend - if we have not seen hundreds of them carried in a bandit mode, yes, we have not seen any - but we have also confirmed that the backpacks of a single handle wereThey will carry in the immediate future with the same naturalness as an Eastpak.To highlight three firms of Riñoneras that the Tokyots worship: Supreme, Stussy and, eye with this firm, Manhattan Portage.

Just before flying to Japan willing to make kilometers and kilometers of asphalt, we decided to get some trekking sandals from the Teva firm whose design is halfway between the mountain classics and an urban adaptation of them.When we got there it seemed that we had done it on purpose: is there anyone in the Japanese capital who doesn't have some?Despite the heat and humidity, many carried them with socks and this image of Veronika Heilbrunner's Instagram - he published it a few days after reaching Tokyo - summarizes very well the effect caused by the combination of both accessories.The surprising thing is that she began to like us, a little.

We thought that the great vintage finding was the Lagos de Fendi bag but in Tokyo we have verified that the backpacks and Louis Vuitton bags win by a win.If something has not been clear to us, crystalline, it is that the tokyots worship luxury and brand bags - season or vintage - prioritizing quality to quantity.Whether for economic power or by saving and renouncing other whims, the fact is that the Japanese invest in their bags not much, a lot of money.Balenciaga and Gucci are also among their favorite signatures.

Linked to the Chinese and camel pants, there are the safari inspiration skirts that all the tokyots wore at the height of the calf this summer.We do not know if they have inspired the brands or brands in them, but the fact is that there are many stores of Japanese origin that offer them in all their variants.Uniqlo, Muji, Sense of Place, Urban Research and Gu are the five affordable brands that matters to know to find one of the garments that most uniform the girls in the most cool neighborhoods of Tokyo.

The fisherman's hats is one of those trends that we saw coming from afar - in summer of 2017 we already talked about it in Vogue.es - but it has been this summer when we finally seem that we have assimilated it at all and its popularity does not seemthat is going to decrease in autumn-winter.Since the Japanese associate the paleness to beauty and that, as a consequence, the entire body with XL visors, umbrellas and mittens with kilometer sleeves - we give faith that this occurs even with 38 degrees and 90% moisture -,It is logical that these types of hats be law in the city.Therefore, the same goes for caps, which have become one more accessory of the chosen tokyots, like everything they carry, conscientiously.

After having declared the death of the pitillo on multiple occasions, flying to Japan has been like moving from theory to practice.While in Madrid the tight jeans are law, in Tokyo what takes mainly are the high -kick jeans but with nuances.They feel surprisingly well, so the hunting of the Denim Treasury must last weeks, and the bass are pure DIY: rolled up in XL version and hand cut.Since Denim's culture in Japan is no joke, we believe in feet together all its decisions around jeans: it is only enough to enter the Japan Blue Jeans store to understand it.

Although the paintings are one of the great tendecia of autumn-winter 2018/19 and that it was felt in Japan in all shop windows-lazara included-, the truth is that it is not such a summer printas to have seen it in all its splendor.But what is highlighted is the amount of Burberry paintings - we do not know if the English firm or if, in any case, it was some imitation - that we have seen walking through the city.The most repeated piece?Male shirts, in many cases open, both in a boy and in girl.

At first we thought it was a simple chance but, little by little, we understood that coincidences and fashion cannot go together in Shibuya."When something becomes a trend, people take it to satiety," said our friend Tokyota, born in Madrid, Shoichiro Takamura.The couples of boyfriends and friends with similar styles and/or identical garments do not come to comment in search of an explanation but, after 15 days touring Japan, we understood that something was behind.The couples of the 'Street Style' are not disenchanted.

Traveling with an authentic Marvel fan has its advantages: we soon realize that this logo was literally in every corner of the Japanese capital.We have seen the Tokyas look it proudly in t-shirts and backpacks as if it were the Off-White logo, making the merchandising of this comic editorial (and new chicken of the cinematographic gold eggs) the new, the most unexpected andthe most affordable object of desire we have found in Japan.Logomania in the future works like this.
