Tokyo rock catwalk - Cocoro Books

Visual Kei is a Japanese pop music movement characterised by eccentric, flamboyant looks, striking make-up, unusual hair styles and elaborate costumes, with an androgynous aesthetics. Tokyo Rock Catwalk is the first-ever book to fully introduce this made-in-Japan pop culture to an overseas audience. Along with stunning full-colour pinup pics and photos from some of the most exciting live performances, members of Visual Kei bands and some of their most loyal fans talk about where this phenomenon comes from and how it fits into Japanese society.
