So how did it all start?
Kawaii is believed to have originated in Japan in the late 1960’s and early 1970s with a group of teenage girls, and university students. At the time there were a lot of student protests rebelling against authority. Some refused to go to school lectures and read children books instead, these protests also involved a cute childlike style of handwriting, which eventually escalated to clothing styles, makeup, overall appearance, and a sense of playfulness and appreciation for anything “cute.” It became a way to express themselves in a creative way.
