Hideto outfit ^.^

Yahho ^.^

Itｴs little Umi :wave: and I have a very important question.
I am fan of J-MuSiK for a long (very long) time now...and yesterday I thought "where do the Musican get their clothes from?!"
I mean...ok...perhaps stylist, designer (whateva)
But my question is "are there any stores where you can buy for example ~totally mixed coloured Hide-jackets~
I am a big fan of hide and I like his outfit. But in Germany I couldnｴt find such flashy coloured stuff.

Well I hope somebody is as weird as little Uminotori *XD

There are shops in Japan that sell goods to Japanese Visual Kei bands, but that's mostly the gothic-look stuff.

As far as i know, you can only get those cool hide outfits at the LEMONed SHOP (http://www.hide-city.com/lemonedshop/). I'm not sure if they ship outside of Japan and you have to be able to read Japanese.

Oh, and you need to have money to burn... :)

[Uminotori]

ThanX soo much....

I can read japanese (ok...not many Kanji...but some)
And I go to Japan for 1 year this year....so...I just need money ....

ThanX

Hey there.... well, theres a few places in the UK that sell gothic stuff that with a little work can be made to look like a j-rock music. As for Japan, theres ID Japan I know who actually design clothes for various bands (you can buy the outfits but at IMMENSE cost!) and make there own more affordable gear. Their website is
http://www.id-japan.co.jp
I noticed you read a japanese so you'll be okay but the first time I looked at this site I couldn't read it and made my way around easily.. now I can (but no kanji!!) so its even easier.. I'm sure you'll be fine! There's also ba-tsu which Kyo from Dir en grey designed some clothes for and their web site is
http://www.ba-tsu.co.jp/

I hope some of this has helped! I dress visual kei as much as possible, but even living in the UK, its really hard to look more than just goth.

[Uminotori]

ThanX so much.....^.^
I will check the addresses soon.
Yes, I know the problem.
Everybody see you dressed with black clothes say "oww..look she´s a goth" >_<*
But I hope in japan they understand my way to dress *haha*

I would roll over and die for one of those jet's tees at LEMONed shop!!! But no shipping to me*sigh*

[Twisted]

Yeah, i like them too. But they probably won't have them in my size anyway. :box:

[midnitestar7]

I love loads of the clothes.. but all the ones I liked had "sold out" next to them.. evil evil evil! Also, size XL Japanese T-shirt (I got a dir en grey one) is only about a size L max our size.. so L japanese is only about a medium.... I'm a tall (5'8") and.. well.. lets say voluptuos woman and the japanese are quite small chested so its very likely I won't fit in anything! Going out to Japan in May so might have a look and see what fits me!

i never new ID made some of Dir en grey's outfits!!? :shock:
i have been to that site a few times and never noticed...? but are people able to order from there?? do they have a store in Japan?? because im going to Japan very soon and i would like to go there!? i always wanted to know who made Dir en greys most awesome costumes! i would want to buy one for myself..much money,but o well..the best cosplay ever! it would almost be like having their real one! ::woot:: :D

[Uminotori]

I donｴt know about any "diru store" *haha* but Iｴve kinda insider tip for you (if you are in Japan but short of money..and you are definitly when you stay in tokyo ^,^) ..when you are in Harajuku..on that highstreet...where all the shops are located etc. ...at the beginning (after coming out of station) youｴll see a Mc. Donalds on the left...so turn right into a sidestreet..it looks really scary like a dark alley *haha* but at the end..youｴll find sooo great gothic loli etc. clothes...and the best "50% off" ..I donｴt know why but there seemed to be really no difference to the one you can buy at the other shops..so..

[*Angelic_Marionette*]

Arigato - i think i will look for the discount area of gothic lolita you said. i know the ones in the stores are alot of money..thanx!~ :wave:

You can cosplay. I cosplay because I live in Norway and here you can't buy anything visual kei-ish. So I began cosplaying in 2002, I'm a BIG fan of Dir En Grey and Hide. I have cosplayed quite many of their costumes. It's really funny to!

You get that kind of stuff on Melrose avenue I live like 9 minutes away from there so it's no problem. Try looking for online shops of the Melrose shops.
You can get glasses and jewelry ( Necromance ) you can get shoes. everything is here. very very high fashion.
