Fantastic Minimalist Japanese Outfits Ideas.
Minimalism has long been associated with art. The concept of less-is-more dates back to the 1960s has since seeped into various facets of our lives.
Today, “minimalist” is a colloquial term used to describe a vast array of pared-down items — from interior aesthetics and art to beauty and our clothes. Japanese minimalism is very deeply connected to the Zen and Buddhist traditions — the ideas of using only what is needed, longevity, respect, and providing space for introspection.

#1 Simple Monochrome
Japan is a fan in monochrome fashion. Monochrome outfits have often been shunned in favor of something bright, bold and statement. But when styled just right, monochrome is by far the chicest – and easiest – color combination to pull off. The key to nailing this look is tracking down some key pieces, and working them top-to-toe. Once you’ve collected enough monochrome clothing, you can switch things up and work the trend into every area of your wardrobe.
#2 One Tone Dressing
The one-tone dressing is one of the Japanese minimal outfit styles. There is no secret trick to wearing monochromatic outfits. As long as you have tops, bottoms, and accessories in the same color (different shades of the color work too), dressing in all one tone is super simple and looks really chic. Dressing head to toe in one color is an art, which can give you a chic and sophisticated look if mastered. It's also a great look if you want to draw attention to an awesome new statement bag or a pair of shoes.
