Hot Styles at J-Pop Summit Festival

The sun came out on Sunday, much to the delight of festival-goers at the fourth annual J-Pop Summit: a Japanese pop culture extravaganza in Japantown, featuring live music, fashion shows, film screenings, vendors selling homemade wares and delicious Japanese treats.

There were so many sprite-like people milling about the streets of Japantown, dressed in colorful and fanciful garments—in costumes ranging from Elegant Gothic Lolitas to White Rabbits from Alice in Wonderland to flying rodents, some even carrying the same props as their portrayed characters from manga or anime worlds. Despite the tunes, food, movies, and other happenings, the J-Pop Summit was really all about the fashion. Here are some of our favorite looks.
