[VRF × MJP] V-ROCK FESTIVAL '09 Fashion Show Report

'V-ROCK FESTIVAL '09' was held on October 24th and 25th at Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Halls 9-11. During the world's biggest live event [department store] Laforet Harajuku and [fashion magazine] KERA jointly held a fashion show called 'Laforet×KERA V-ROCK Collection'. In two days about 12,000 fashion and music fans enjoyed the show that took place on the S-STAGE. Although the atmosphere surrounding the stage was markedly different from the others, the fans were all equally excited. For the fashion show, artists leading the visual-kei industry lent a helping hand as well. Each artist became a model for each participating fashion brand. Fans of the musicians were treated to a rare spectacle.

After this post, I was wondering if anyone would like a list of LA-area ideas/places/etc for loli meet-ups? (Similar to this one for San Diego.) It would take a bit of work on my part, so I just wanted to get a feeler out there to determine interest before I started.

If you are interested, what kind of things and places would you like to see on the list? I figure gardens, museums, tea houses, performing arts centers... I'd probably leave out places to eat, since there are too many fun places to eat in LA.

Thanks!

Hi everyone! :)

An odd request - I'll be attending the Bats and Cats masquerade on this Friday, and I only need one more thing to complete my outfit: A long, white, curly wig. Unfortunately, I couldn't find one anywhere (all the places I went to told me that they sold out because of so many people dressing as Lady Gaga, haha). If anyone has one I could borrow just for the night, I would be so grateful! (I'm trying to be cost effective, since I'll only need it the one time...) Alternatively, if there is a cheap yet reliable costume shop in the downtown/chinatown area that would sell a wig of this description, I would love to be informed as to its location :)

If you've got a wig like this you could lend out for the night, feel free to PM me and perhaps we can set something up.

Thank you for reading! Hope to see some of you there!

What-Dinner meetup at PMX

Where- The Cafe at the LAX Hilton in Los Angeles

Meet up at- the main lobby area of the hotel

When- Saturday at 6pm. (I'll be there at 5:45 and we'll wait until 6:15 for anyone running late.)

Everyone is welcome. You don't even have to be attending PMX. Sorry for the last minute notice. PM me if you'd like my cell # just in case. So, who can make it?

(cross posted to [info]ca_egl, [info]egl, [info]pmx_lolita, and [info]la_loligoth. Sorry if you see it more than once.)

UPDATE- We might go to a different nearby (still within walking distance) restaurant because more people responded than I expected (yay) and now I'm not so sure we will all fit at The Cafe. We'll decide as a group when we meetup if we want to go elsewhere.

10 am to 6 pm rain or shine
there will be ROBO-ONE, Sumo Wrestling, Japan Style Fashion Show, Costume Play Show by Akihabara Maids, AWA dancing, traditional dancing, action show, food booths, fashion booths, and more (according to the ad)

admission is $2 but they have $1 off coupons in their ads which can be found in those free japanese publications you find at japanese stores and markets.

i've never heard of this event before. does anyone know if it's new?

Sorry for being a huge procrastinator. I know it's last minute but I hope there is still interest. A few of us were talking about having a meetup at the con and it seems like Saturday works best for most of us. I just need some help figuring out when would be the best time exactly and which restaurant we prefer.
Please help decide if you'd like to join us... )

This is kinda last minute, but, I was planning to go to pmx and stay at my stepdad's mom's house but she has swine flu so now I have nowhere to stay :[
My question is, is anybody willing to let 1 extra girl stay with them at the hilton/anywhere?
of course I can split the room cost :)
*edit: preferably saturday, but friday is fine too, i'm so desperate D:

found for now :)
* * *
I was wondering if anyone was already doing the swap meet at PMX or wanted to have our own seperate one away from the con since the times they posted conflict with the music programing.

Extra tickets for Disney's California Adventure Halloween Treat Party 10/23
* * *
hey there folks!

i just wanted to mention that this weekend is the annual free museum day(s) incase any wanted to plan anything. there aren't as many participating as before, but there are still some good ones that'll let you in for free.

...like the getty center and villa, autry, bowers, moca, and norton simon for example. the california science center is considered one of the more fun ones. the japanese american national museum (janm) in little tokyo has a kokeshi doll exhibit that is ending that weekend. and much more!
you can see who else is offering and days here-
http://www.museumsla.org/news.asp

great for fulfilling the curiosity factor and on the wallet.

some museums do have monthly free days (target is also sponsoring some free museum days) but sometimes there's nothing more convenient than a weekend compared to a busy weekday.

*some restrictions may apply btw

LA Opera Costume Garage Sale.

Though not entirely Lolita.... you can probably find a ton of great accessories that can be used for Lolita. The Los Angeles Opera is going to be selling off all of the old costumes used in previous productions.
