A beautiful book to look at, with some interesting analysis of what the Japanese designers were getting at when they burst upon the fashion world in the early 1980's.

Fremdwort an Fremdwort, eine Straffung des Textes wäre nötig gewesen, nur für wirkliche Fans der Geschichte der Mode in den letzten Jahrhunderten.
