Fashion wise - do you like Shibuya fashion?

or Harajuku fashion?

Harajuku fashion is too gothic for me. I like Shibuya style.

I think there are few things here:
The pictures in the Shibuya video appear to be from fashion magazines, so they look better to start with.

Also the concept of Harajuku fashion is normally seen as Gothic Lolita style seen on Harajuku railway bridge and may include the fashion from Takeshita-dori which I think you can see from the set of pictures taken there is not that different from Shibuya.

Don't forget also that Harajuku also includes Omote-sando which is much more conservative and very close to Ginza in style.

While the Harajuku styles are pretty adorable, and insanely unique, the Shibuya styles are more practical, though still pretty cute.

I find it hard to say I like one better than the other, simply because they are so different.

Both are really cute, but I do like the Shibuya a lot!
