Of all the fashion weeks cover around the world, it’s Tokyo’s street style that never disappoints. Tokyo’s buzzy schedule—which includes Kozaburo, Hare, Tae Ashida, and Hyke this season, among others—draws editors and stylists from all over the world, but the locals we’re seeing on the streets are easily the most experimental fashion fans. If you liked the minimalism of New York, London, Milan, and Paris, Tokyo will change your mind; here it’s all about wild prints, statement-making accessories, and multicolored hair. Tokyo Fashion Week takes place from March 16 (Mon) – March 21 (Sat), according to Vougue.
