Summary, etc This article documents the role of uniforms in Japan’s project of modernity and beyond, building on research that has identified prescribed modes of dress as fundamental to the politics and poetics of a highly regulated society. A thematically organized account begins with a brief introduction to the indigenous apparel system prior to adoption of European versions of formal and military dress as the ‘uniform of civilization and enlightenment’. The discussion next considers the use of liveries as the private sector spearheaded a burgeoning commercialization of metropolitan life in the early twentieth century. A flexible interpretation of the term ‘uniform’ is taken in order to examine the referencing of traditional dress forms by Japanese designers through object analysis of the creative outputs of the fashion industry and visual analyses of imagery culled from the canon of fashion representation. The youthful self-fashionings of identity currently occurring in Japan are addressed for their contributions to current popular culture and the conclusion suggests that debates concerning the embodying of power relationships in dress might benefit from critical refraction through a prism able to accommodate the ubiquity of uniforms in Japan.
