Sake Tasting and Fashion Show

So as part of our status in Tokyo as "Junior Socialites" we're obligated to attend some of the cultural functions that happen around town.

One such night, we found ourselves at The Super Deluxe in Roppongi for a Nihonshu (what Americans refer to as "Sake"; sake, in Japanese, simply means alcohol, generally) tasting and an underground fashion show (I assume this differs from an above-ground fashion show in that there's no way anyone will ever be wearing these clothes and that these designers are actually employed full-time at the nearby ramen shop). I'm not knocking the nihonshu (which was all terrible) or the designers (who were also terrible)...I'm just saying.

And so, we begin...
As you can tell from the looks on our faces, we were impressed...


And the whole thing was capped off with some authentic bongo music?
