Laforet (see 8 OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP ) has been a beacon of cutting-edge Ha-
rajuku style for decades. It's been looking a little mainstream lately (see Topshop
on the ground floor) but you can still find plenty inside here to turn your head.
And guys: don't let the gaggle of girls put you off, there's stuff for you too. (
