I think that if she wanted to "portray them right" she could have hired real girls dressing in Harajuku fashions. I guess what bugs me the most is that she isn't calling a spade a spade, you know? If she wants to say it's Harajuku inspired fashion, that is totally fine, but she makes it seem, to me at least, like she is trying to pass them off as real Harajuku fashion. If I had to give them a Japanese sub-culture, I'd say these girls are B-Kei. And they hang out in a totally different district of Tokyo. Type Harajuku into Google images, and the stuff you get looks nothing like the girls dancing around Gwen.
gwen said once that she got inspired by the japanese fashion and wanted to combine it with western fashion. =o

she described her fashion as harajuku meets christian dior.
