Normie J-fashion Lovers UNITE! Anonymous    5963
Am I the only one who loves NORMIE J-fashion?
>>Even though it was a few years ago, I was one of the many anons who studied abroad in Japan for 1 year. 
My boyfriend had a car and worked between two top universities, so I had the advantage of traveling throughout Japan and seeing tons of different cities/towns. One thing I noticed was a similar style among my friends, classmates, and strangers all throughout the country.
Alt-fashion stood out just as much as it would outside Japan ime, but normie J-fashion is also really cute. I really enjoy it.

Depends what you mean by normie. Last few times I've been to Japan I definitely haven't liked their normie trends (eg most recently it was weird penis shaped beanies and super baggy pants, overall a really masculine look) but in general I love the feminine styles that are easy to find there. In the west it's stuff you can only find when it's in style, but in Japan they seem to have more varied, less trend-dependent stuff and it definitely leans towards my girly preferences.

I've never been to Japan but Universal Doll does a fantastic job summarizing the history and evolution of normie j-fashion. I think it's important to understand the basic foundations of normie Japanese pop culture and fashion to have a well-rounded  appreciation of alternative street fashions.

>>5963Cancam and vivi have so many pretty feminine outfits. I like that stuff so much better than lolita and stuff tbh but specific styles have a much bigger presence oversees than just general soft femmy jfash normie (mote kei?) clothing does.
