Last Saturday I was in Aoyama for h.NAOTO’s goth event. The venue was Aoyama Velours, near the Nezu Museum. The dresscode was “h.NAOTO goth”, so I went in my black GRAMM and blood stuff.
Anyone could attend if you bought a ticket. There was an afternoon show and an evening show, and I went to the evening show. Here’s what the ticket looked like:
As I approached the venue, there was a staff wearing what looked like a blood-spattered shirt, a red tie, and red bottoms to usher the guests down the correct side street.
And while we were waiting in line outside the venue, the staff handed us masquerade masks:
We were asked to wear this when entering. Inside, the staff were either wearing the same sort of masks, or they had their face covered with black cloth, with just their eyes showing.
The show consisted of 36 coordinates, about half of them featuring skirts and dresses, and the rest pants coordinates. Designer Naoto-san mentioned that they’d like to do more goth nights in the future.
