/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

There's a time and a place where mixing mainstream fashion brands and J-fashion makes sense; sometimes it's because of fit issues, sometimes there are problems with importing and sometimes you're just looking for more options, perhaps even the luxury of getting to try something out in person before committing to buying it.

Please name-drop your favorite brands to mix back in with J-fashion, or if there's a particular item available out there that just really, really seems to jam well with a specific J-fashion style. Extra points for pictures and Coord ideas.

Here are some to start:
>Kate Spade New York (novelty-themed handbags, shoes and jewelry that is often released in themed seasonal collections)
> Irregular Choice (Hyper-artistic shoes that are richly detailed, themed and limited edition collaborations with Disney and other companies)
>American Duchess (Historically accurate shoes, including models from the 1700s, Victorian and Edwardian eras)
