Resumo: When considering the significance of the Tokyo district Harajuku for the fashion scene, the discrepancy between its limited dimensions of barely two square kilometers and its great national and international relevance in pop culture is striking. Throughout Harajuku’s development, a special role of the international emerges, shaping the identity of this neighborhood. At the same time, DIY practices have long played an important role, inspired by the area’s global connections. In recent years, this process has intersected with the development of fashion cultures online. My article develops a brief cultural history of Harajuku since the post-war period based on interviews with formative actors from its history, print and online media content and observations made on site.

Ao longo do desenvolvimento deste distrito, o papel charneira do internacional é um marco distintivo que emerge. Quer seja pelo contacto direto com o estrangeiro pela sua representação “autêntica” ou pela sua imaginação exotista, esta marca é um elemento eficaz para moldar a identidade deste bairro. Nestes fenómenos, as práticas de bricolage desempenharam durante muito tempo um papel importante, inspiradas pelas ligações globais que o distrito mantém. Nos últimos anos, este processo cruzou-se com o desenvolvimento de culturas de moda online, tornando-o um objeto do máximo interesse para abordar on e offline. Com base em entrevistas a atores-chave da história de Harajuku, conteúdos impressos e online, assim como observações etnográficas, este artigo explora uma breve história cultural de Harajuku a partir do período pós-guerra.Associação Brasileira de Estudos e Pesquisas em Moda - Abepem2022-03-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://dobras.emnuvens.com.br/dobras/article/view/147910.26563/dobras.i34.1479dObra[s] – revista da Associação Brasileira de Estudos de Pesquisas em Moda; n. 34 (2022); 129-1462358-00031982-0313reponame:Revista dObra[s]instname:Associação Brasileira de Estudos e Pesquisas em Moda (Abepem)instacron:ABEPEMporhttps://dobras.emnuvens.com.br/dobras/article/view/1479/741https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKatzenberg, Jana2022-03-29T19:27:05Zoai:ojs.dobras.emnuvens.com.br:article/1479Revistahttps://dobras.emnuvens.com.br/dobras/indexONGhttps://dobras.emnuvens.com.br/dobras/oaidobras.abepem@gmail.com2358-00031982-0313opendoar:2023-01-12T16:05:48.582714Revista dObra[s] - Associação Brasileira de Estudos e Pesquisas em Moda (Abepem)true
