Ganguro originates from the Californian beach look, but it has changed A LOT since then.

It's far from trailer trash. It's about looking your best and having the best, even thought most Gals lack money it's because they follow such an expensive trend. They won't be seen without the latest designer brands etc. I guess the closest Western persona who could only slightly be related to the ganguro trend would be people along the lines of Paris Hilton.
Oh ok.
so its more a magnification of the supposed social hierarchy then?
sort of playing on that "high couture" crud.

weird.
why have a name that means Blackface then? lol
is the similarity to some early illustration coincidental then.
