    Even though it looks like second hand designer goods it’s quite a contrast.
    Nice social commentary.

      Thanks.

      Yeah, second hand ones. Clearly Louis Vuitton stuff holds it price pretty well though, as they aren’t cheap.

          It does. No doubt about it. To be fair though, it’s probably not any different to many other countries.

    Shallowness meets real world, amazing contrast!

      Yeah, it’s all there. Particularly in Kabukicho where I took the photo.
