As a country existing within a multi-faceted, complex culture, Japan has seen countless trends regarding food, fashion, and beauty, among other things, throughout its long history. In particular, Japanese fashion has often been seen as eccentric and avant-garde, producing unique styles like gyaru, kawaii, and Harajuku fashion.

The 70s, 80, and 90s certainly had their share of notable trends, and Japanese Fashion Archive has dedicated its tumblr page to introducing the numerous vintage garments designed during the span of three decades. From extravagantly embroidered stadium jackets to asymmetrical sweaters and dresses, the virtual collection displays fashion pieces by famous Japanese designers such as Issey Miyake, Comme Des Garçons, and Kansai Yamamoto.
