Gorgeous Kimono, Houmongi

Hello,

Houmongi is created as “visiting dress” in the Meiji period. It has not been so long though we always think kimono is traditional stuff, don’t you think?
I recommend having Houmongi for your first kimono, as you would wear it for various occasion like wedding celemony, party or tea celemony, etc.
Go to the party with Houmongi, you can make a splash!
Choose one you really love, and try to wear it to make you special!
Tips for coordinates are: choose one with designs covered whole part for young ladies, and smaller designs or simple plain color for elderly women.

It’s cloudy in Osaka today. Temperature is 15 ℃.


ByeBye
