This book is a photobook published in 2001 as a digest version of "FRUiTS," a new magazine launched in the 1990s by Shoichi Aoki, the founder of the overseas street fashion magazine "Street." It is a popular series that has been reprinted several times and has sold over 200,000 copies. Aoki, who has been introducing street style photos of fashionistas since the 1980s to convey the appeal of overseas fashion, says that at that time Japan was experiencing a DC boom, with Comme des Garçons and Yohji Yamamoto enjoying overwhelming popularity. "FRUiTS" was launched to capture the Harajuku culture that began to emerge in the mid-1990s when that popularity had subsided, and a unique fashion style mixing vintage clothing and other elements began to appear. It was a unique fashion style that finally emerged in Japan, which had previously lacked individuality, with people wearing overseas brands or dressing head-to-toe in Comme des Garçons or Yohji Yamamoto. This is a reprint edition published in 2005. It is included in "The Photobook: A History Volume III."
