“Pop N Cute” Kawaii Party by Harajuku Fashion Walk – Pictures & Video

Harajuku Fashion Walk is a fun event that brings together fans of kawaii and colorful Japanese fashion. However, Harajuku Fashion Walk only takes place every few months. So what do the Harajuku Fashion Walkers do when they’re not parading around Harajuku? They get together with friends and party!

Party Baby at Pop N Cute

“Pop N Cute” was the name of the latest Harajuku Fashion Walk-produced party, held recently at club Milky Way in Shibuya. The concept behind the Harajuku Fashion Walk parties is that they are produced BY Harajuku kids FOR Harajuku kids. All of the participants are from the Harajuku scene – from the bands to the fashion labels to the models to the artists to the people making the sweets. Pop N Cute – and the previous HFW Halloween Party – are all about Harajuku kawaii fashion and fun.

The lineup for the Pop N Cute party was packed with kawaii goodness – including a Broken Doll live set (featuring a cover of “Material Girl”), several DJs (including Choco from Panama Boy & Niko), fashion shows (Hyper Core, Party Baby & Super Lovers), live painting (by Kera model Kurebayashi and Machico & Karin), popup shops (Broken Doll, Party Baby & more), a performance by Nantoka Kantoka (complete with a Panda-headed idol), and even cake!

We know that many of the people who follow this website aren’t in Japan. So, several of the TokyoFashion.com were happy to be invited to the party so that we could shoot Pop N Cute pictures and video to share with you! The video starts out with a special “behind the scenes” segment to give you a sneak peak at all of the work that went into preparing for the party. As Sebastian from 6%DOKIDOKI famously said last year, “Kawaii is hard work!”
