Trend Alert

FASHION CELL OUT

A close fashion source has brought the following story to my attention. Apparently in Japan, the hot new fashion trend is the line of aprons and bags made by inmates at Hakodate Juvenile Prison on the northern island of Hokkaido. The items are decorated with the Japanese character for “jail” , and are put together and sewn by the prisoners. The accessories are so popular, they're currently sold out. You can read more about the penitentiary fashion craze here.
