“his is a really neat book which discusses Japanese schoolgirl's various fashions from the late 1960's on through the present, discussing the type of fashion and illustrating those with various drawings, explanations, and photographs.

My own favorites are the gothic-lolita type fashions. Anyhow, the book is full of neat illustrations and information, and is a valuable addition to anyone who likes the Fruits books or the Gothic-Lolita Bibles.”
