Harajuku girls

This week I was in Harajuku for a hair appointment. I couldn't resist taking a photo of these young ladies who were part of what looked like a semi professional photo shoot. I didn't see any signage explaining the reason for the shoot or why they're all dressed in baby doll dresses. While I wouldn't call this fashion common, I wouldn't say it's rare either. In Harajuku it's not unusual to spot a shop selling the look.
