Look closely at any typically “American” article of clothing these days, and you may be surprised to see a Japanese label inside. From high-end denim to oxford button-downs, Japanese designers have taken the classic American look—known as ametora, or “American traditional”—and turned it into a huge business for companies like Uniqlo, Kamakura Shirts, Evisu, and Kapital. This phenomenon is part of a long dialogue between Japanese and American fashion; in fact, many of the basic items and traditions of the modern American wardrobe are alive and well today thanks to the stewardship of Japanese consumers and fashion cognoscenti, who ritualized and preserved these American styles during periods when they were out of vogue in their native land.
In Ametora, cultural historian W. David Marx traces the Japanese assimilation of American fashion over the past hundred and fifty years, showing how Japanese trendsetters and entrepreneurs mimicked, adapted, imported, and ultimately perfected American style, dramatically reshaping not only Japan’s culture but also our own in the process.

评分where japanese fashion and style come from
评分还是挺羡慕的。之前啃了三本日本电影史,浩浩汤汤讲了一个世纪。这个日本美式服装没那么厚,但也横跨了大半个世纪。一开始满眼陌生,到后来逐渐出现了Popeye、Evis、BAPE,甚至提到了MHL,期间还不断填充世界经济史,脑中反复拍大腿式感叹:草,这牌子原来这么回事儿!!!羡慕之余还是常常想问一句,啥时候能看到中国的啊啊啊啊啊
