Resumo

O presente artigo examina o uso de escritos em japonês em itens de moda. O uso do inglês em itens de moda, tais como camisetas, tem sido observado ao redor do globo e examinado pelo campo da sociolinguística. Em anos recentes, marcas como Gucci, Coach, Adidas e Nike vêm estampando escritas em japonês em suas roupas junto com seus nomes originais. Uma marca de moda britânica, Superdry, até mesmo usa o japonês no seu nome de marca e em seus logos. Contudo, o uso de outras línguas além do inglês ainda não foi analisado nem no campo da sociolinguística nem no da moda. A adoção de normas culturais diferentes é por vezes discutida como uma forma de apropriação cultural. Esse artigo desafia essa visão ao comparar o uso do inglês e do japonês assim como ao discutir possíveis explicações para isso junto aos papéis das escritas em japonês na moda. Parece que que os escritos em japonês são usados por causa do capital simbólico, cultural e linguístico que detém assim como uma visão de permitir as marcas expressarem singularidade. Argumentamos que estampar escritas em japonês em itens de moda não é apenas uma simples representação de japonismo, mas uma forma de apreciação cultural e linguística. Também afirmamos que o Novo Orientalismo que tem sido observado na adaptação dessas escritas para a moda não tem uma conotação de alteridade ou diferença. Ao invés disso, ele representa uma aceitação ativa do Oriente como gerador de novas culturas. Fluxos transculturais são observados no campo da moda na era da globalização. Esse artigo apresenta uma nova perspectiva nos estudos sobre o Orientalismo e os usos das línguas e escritas.
