x10000000 Outfits can certainly add to a performance, but no way should a singer's costumes ruin it. (If that were the case, I would hate all of her "cute" performances, and I would never watch lives of ayaka or Ai Otsuka. XD)

[JackieRos]

YES! FOR THE PHOTOS WOOT!

[Hedwigie]

I will never judge her outfits by looking at the pictures.
When the pictures of a-nation 08 and AT 09, I really thought like why her taste become so bad.
All the outfits in the pictures seemed so weird and ugly.
But when I watched the video, those outfits turned out to be very good ans stunning.
So, I think that pictures which taken in not very good angle won't tell us how pretty the outfits.
Only video can tell us XD

[thesilentspeaker]

Wow! I love her braids and the outfit accompanying it! Am loving the kimono too
And her teddy bear looks cute! Heh, cuter than the one years before

There's always going to be arguing, there's no way around it of course lol.

Hm, the only costume I didn't like was the alice in wonderland one. &I think her hair looks good!

[rakeru]

Hmm... there doesn't seem to be a lot of color in the outfits this time around. But I won't judge yet; seeing them in action is totally different from mere pictures.

[alternarist]

the outfits are about the same as each other... Same colour scheme also.

I realised that ever since AT2008, ayu likes to wear pants for her concerts. I just wished that the costumes had more variety just like AT2005.

And people, this is a CDL, dont expect costumes that WOW us.

[mcluva420]

omg i love her black puffy dress
and that ayu-tshirt totally sports the BEST FICTION t-shirt idea

[Sandre]

Wow, those outfit are so cool.
Ayu 's amazing!
Thanks for the photos!

But, what's wrong with the hair..? I think her hair's been one of the best parts of her career the past two years. XD (Well, except for the atrocious mishap the beginning of this year... I think you'll all remember what I mean. DDD: )

I also think, that she needs to feel comfortable in the outfits she is wearing on stage. So, when she feels comfortable in these outfits then let her recycle the things (I personally don't think that the dresses are really recycled, but whatever!).
It's not like they're the same all the time!

For me, the most important things about Ayu's concerts are the songs and the performances and not the dresses she is wearing!

Hello...why are we talking about "recycling"?

By the way, I sort of like her hair at this time - but only when she does not tie it up, such as on the encore part...

Yeah agreed. The NL outfits looked a million times better live. But I'm definitely not hating on these based on the pics either. Except the Pride one.... I'm starting to think if these horrible Pride outfits symbolize her shame/lost pride or something

I agree with who said that she's probably making a little of fun of herself with the Alice in Wonderland outfit and not taking it too seriously.

[SunshineSlayer]

The tracklist is great, but these costumes are some of her worst I think. Some of them actually wouldn't be so bad if they didn't have an obnoxious hat or something. The best one is the white dress and that is something she has worn before. Also, a cage theme - again?!

Recycling a little is understandable. But lets be honest, Ayu recycles a lot. I wouldn't mind so much her recycling costumes if she didn't recycle the performances too.

[Corvina]

Hm, I don't like these outfits (minus the white one maybe).
And to be honest, her hair looks also really bad.
She doesn't look good on those photos.
I hope it will also look better in real life this time.

I don't care if these outfits are recycled or not, but bad outfits are bad outfits.

[agashi]

@_@ omg...her hair in alice wonderland costume....
at least, i love this cdl tracklist! awesome!

[ayumi.hamasaki]

I like the outfits so far just the Step You/EnergizE outfit has to grow on me

Yes, that's what bothers me. I honestly don't care if she only ever wears a dozen outfits (yeah, it'd get boring, but whatever), as long as she at least puts out different performances! Especially whenever they make a performance so extravagant, only for the audience to go, "oh....this again? :\"

[njanjayrp]

Do keep in mind that she tours and performs a lot, it would be way too complicated if she would have a different performance each time she performs STEP you or 1LOVE, of course she could always stand in one place and sing, but than people would complain that she is boring. I personally like the costumes she had for I am... and Pride the most. I think these are better than the majority of those she had on during the last two CDLs.
