Check out these stores when you are next in Aoyama, Tokyo.

• Flair Aoyama – This store is located in the centre of Aoyama and is known for taking huge risks and creating new trends. Rather than carrying what is currently popular in the streets, Flair showcases whatever their designers and operators feel looks good, making it a must-visit store for fashion lovers looking to keep ahead of the mass market trends.
• Boutique W – This store is known for the intriguing, modern design of the building itself, with headless mannequins and industrial lighting, but the mix of European and Japanese designs is an equally big draw for many Harajuku shoppers.
• Dress Camp – This store is known for its elegant, sleek design and its outlandish, colorful clothing, with everything from jackets and pants to dresses and bikinis.
• Loveless – This three storey shopping complex is home to more than 100 different brands from around Tokyo, including up and coming new stars, classic Japanese favorites and new styles that are sweeping the Harajuku and Aoyama scenes.
