Best Japanese Fashion Magazine?
 
1 Attachment(s)
I love JJ and Cutie but what do you think is the best Japanese fashion magazine and why? I love Fruits because it has some of the best street fashion but JJ has everything designer I love! Picked up a new magazine I'd never heard of before called Ageha and love it so far! (Image below of the January 2009 issue).

I've seen Zipper. That's the only magazine I've flipped though, other than manga-mags, on this list.

The Gothic and Lolita Bible should be added on this poll...

Magazine!
 
I personally like JJ:)

But here in Japan, generally a magazine called "Seventeen" is the most popular magazine among high school students, And for adults, JJ and Can-Can are the most pupular I think!

Sorry, jebat66, but that sig is not approved. I would have PMed you, but your PMs are turned off.

I only ever read Ray or Vivi most of the time. >.> and thats not on the poll.

NishiHime 01-18-2009 07:38 PM

I tried to change the poll to add the other magazines Yinnie suggested but am unable to now that it's been created and members have voted. I'll check out Ray & Vivi though - I didn't know Seventeen was popular there! :)

The magazines on poll here are general/mainstream fashion mags. I actually love the Gothic Lolita Bible but it is a very specific type of fashion magazine catering to a very specific niche and not mainstream at all so it would not be fair to include it among general mags.

You can visit http://www.s-woman.net/st/ if you're interested in Seventeen.

I've read most of these mags and I have to say ageha and Kera are the best (although the type of fashion they cater to is kinda different...).
And why does Fruits have so many votes? I guess it's the most famous outside of Japan but... Kera has Harajuku street snaps just like Fruits but also a TON more interesting stuff and articles/makeup tutorials as well.

Not trying to bash Fruits, it's got some good photos, I'm just saying it's actually quite dull compared to other mags, at least in my opinion. :P

The only one I've seen on the list is Fruits, which was really nice. My favorite which isn't on the list, is the Gothic & Lolita Bible.

I picked up the December, January and February issues of VOCE and inside were great samples of luxury creams and lotions or others products from labels like Dior (their skin serum was included in one).

Can anyone recommend another beauty magazine that also gives away freebies?
