NEW YORK, Feb 5, 2010 / FW/ — Lolita, Gothic Lolita, and Tokyo Girls styles might sound more like the title of a movie or the name of a band, but believe it or not, these are very popular Japanese fashion styles.
Rarely seen in the U.S., these segment of Japanese fashion will be the focus of FIT’s “Tokyo Fashion Festa” slated on February 19, 2010 from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM.
The fashion show, which will include live and filmed musical performances, will be followed by a brief film about the Tokyo fashion and music scene. This unique event, which will take place at the Morris W. and Fannie B. Haft Auditorium, Fashion Institute of Technology, Seventh Avenue at 27th Street, is by invitation only.
Featured in the fashion show will be leading Lolita and Gothic Lolita brands such as Alice and the Pirates, Amy’s Love, Angelic Pretty, Baby the Stars Shine Bright, Black Peace Now, and Mielette Tautou.

Shared News: Yoshiki Talks about US Concert Lollapalooza! (Sources Listed, Article from http://www.xplosion-online.com/)
Several news websites reported about YOSHIKI's appearance on the red carpet at the Grammy Award 2010 that took place on January 31 (local time). There he announced that X JAPAN accepted the request to play at Chicago's music festival 'Lollapalooza' that will take place from 6th to 8th August, 2010. If X JAPAN play there, they will be the first japanese rock band that plays on the main stage. During the event that is lasting three days, 225000 visitors will be expected.
However, we still have to wait for official confirmation from X JAPAN, as there's nothing announced on their website, yet, or anywhere else.

Like I've said before, I believe it's time to take action. Toshi's through one of the hardest times in his life, and we should show him how much we care and support him.
I want you to please post any kind of ideas of how to do this, everything is welcome.
Main Idea: A Scrapbook Album
My idea, up to now, is making something like an album, which will hold all our handwritten letters, not via e-mail, since I believe when someone takes the time to write all of this by your own fist, it takes with it all your effort, your love, and your caring, wishing him the best. Drawings or pictures of you with you official merchandise of his solo career stuff, X's or both are a good idea too, but they're entirely OPTIONAL.
Deadline: March 8th.
To make it clearer, that's the last day you will have to go over your local post office and send your letter to the volunteer designed for your area.
You will need to check the website, the board AND the facebook groups for all the official information.
