Review

Basement boutique Dog has wooed some unusual customers with its blend of outlandish vintage and reworked clothing – not least Lady Gaga, who’s been known to visit incognito on her trips to Tokyo. Indeed, those with a taste for the theatrical will appreciate its remakes, which include replicas of costumes from Gaga’s own shows (and a few Madonna numbers). If you’re looking for something a little more wearable, its range of indie designer remakes are also worth browsing. Opened by Kai Satake in 2000 (and followed by a Koenji outlet in 2009), the shop’s dark, graffiti-covered entrance is easy to walk past without a second glance – let the metal-clad mannequin that stands guard outside be your guide.
