Japanese ladies asked which fashions they secretly fancy trying yield up a telling list of contemporary and not so contemporary Japanese fashions, most of which will be instantly recognisable – in the event they are not some helpful illustrations are included.
1. Age-jou dress and high-rise hairstyle [these extravagant fashions are associated exclusively with cabaret club girls]
2. A dress fit for a princess like Marie Antoinette
3. Romantic Taisho or retro Showa period Japanese attire [early to mid twentieth century Japanese attire with western influences]
4. Oiran [oiran were high class Japanese courtesans, along the lines of geisha but with a greater emphasis on sex]
7. Mori gal [“forest girl” – a style defined simply by it looking as if the wearer belongs in a forest setting]
Once again an almost universal hatred for otaku is hard to reconcile with a secret desire to cosplay many Japanese women seemingly hold.

It's rare I say this, but I would be into ALL of these things for a cute Japanese girl. Yummy!
what about Nazi cosplay , its popular in japan i hear .
Go Fuck yourself
I seriously think I could really go for a cute girl dressed up as an Oiran.
Romantic Taisho or retro Showa period Japanese attire, also sounds like it could be very alluring.
Of all fetishes to experience, these sound so sophisticated and satisfying.
i m a guy so that dont do it 4 me lol
I'd hate to say this but... the body shape! not all women are... (i'm not saying it)
Forest Girl.
Be one with nature, release your animal side. Inside her.
Lolita! Oh!~
I encourage all who are looking at this article (mostly females to try thiry this) and if guys try this it will just be for comedic relief.
Number 4 is classy, especially if it's like the image above.
On number 9 you've got anime cosplay.
But doesn't anime cosplay include all the rest?
I ll take the full package ...
Women always hate what they secretly dream about.
The same mechanism is when she says "no" and desires you will do as if she said "yes".
Woman. The only internally contradictory being in nature.
Those are not women,
simply girls.
"No" means "Yes!"
"your resistance only makes my penis harder"
5. Maid = FTW :)
Ok, I just don't get the bunny girl fetish. I've never got it. It doesn't look good. It didn't look good when Hugh made it mainstream (or invented it), and it doesn't look good now.
Animal ears for that matter don't work outside of cat ears, but at least they don't include a whole bad looking ensemble.
Nekomimi is the way to go ...
And bunny girl was invented in America, so it's a fail anyway
Girls hate otaku but they are doing things that make otaku like them even more.
I foresee this ending in raep.
There is a SEVERE lack of catgirl >.>
I'd like to try them all except the first one ^_^ I've already done some cosplay though :P
Artefact, the picture you used for "Lolita" is Goth-Loli. The picture you used for "goth-loli" more punk.
It's not hard. :/
So I'm not the only one who noticed this. I laughed, though.
You know I have a fetish for women covered in anything expensive. So I would love to see my gf in a princess getup.
I'm down with gothic.
I'd try mori gal if it's equally appealing in men's fashion. I'm big into plants, by the way.
High-rise hairstyle: See Kid 'n Play. That said, I'd wear it like a badge of honor!
I'd also wear #3. But what I'd really like to try is something that feels very martial arts.
I'd really like my girlfirend to try out 3, 5, 6, & 7
Mori Gal is kinda new to me......Maybe we should have a gallery on it ?
I specially approve of the Oiran, the head accessories would be interesting to see.
Fashion I'd secretly like to try: Scottish Kilts
maybe after all "NO" means "YES"?
"3. Romantic Taisho or retro Showa period Japanese attire"
Oh, hell yes.
Why is the worst thing #1 ? - it only proofs that women have no real sense for aesthetics
...and bunny girl wtf, everyone knows that nekomimi is the best
forest gal? wtf?
the only thing that comes to mind is a ranger with light leather armor, leather boots and a longbow. well, it's not the worst kind of fashion.
I always wanted to try those ;--; No cat girl? What a shame.. I thought with the massive "Nyas" it would be on there
aw, why did i find this so cute. they secretly want to cosplay :3
I'm okay with this.
1. Ikebana style?
2. Need Oppai for that
3. I love these! http://image.blog.livedoor.jp/vivit2008/imgs/4/5/459795c3.JPG
4. Geisha style for the win , but save the pale face lol
5. is maid normal fashion now lol?
6. Goth Loli , not dislike but just no comment
7. Little red riding hood etc?
8. for cute girls only
9. and you say anime is only for otakus
10. classic rocks
#7, Mori Gal, is more about warm colours and perhaps nature spirits. See; http://somethingborrowedornew.blogspot.com/2010/02/mori-gal-subculture.html for examples.
And wouldn't Little Red Riding Hood normally be considered Lolita? Red has quite an ability to stand out in a forest as well, imo.
Romantic Taisho looks good, but I still think that Maid is the best one =)
4, 6, 9 please!
5 and 7 too :3
I'm a guy. Can I do it too?
Convert to Hideyoshi and you can do........... ANYTHING!
There needs to be a male version of this top 10 list.
I bet there will be one... and I also bet it will be the same list lol.
Only if you make decent trap material
So what's the problem?, like if dressing like that would push police to arrest or bash you or anything (unless it's roleplay, then it's sexeh)...
cost of clothes?
in the end everyone has a similar chain of thought otaku or not otaku!
3,4 & 6 for me.
wow almost everything except for 1 (maybe 2) of all these are in my preferences
but seriously tho, does anyone find high rise hair attractive??...anyone?
