There is so much to learn from Japan. The way they still preserved their culture and infused it with modernization instead of completely get into western influence really shows the soft power of Japan. That's why in India we are building shinkasen train instead of any other bullet train bc of quality. Indian culture also needed to be infused with mordernisation instead of having a colonial idea that it is primitive.

Do you think you would be able to make a video on eating gluten free or with allergies in Japan? I saw your gluten free okonomiyaki video (funnily, just last week my husband was talking about trying to make some at home, I need to share that video with him ^_^) and as someone with celiac disease, my biggest worry if I ever somehow get that slim chance of being able to visit Japan, that I would wind up sick and unable to enjoy the trip because of difficulty finding food that's safe or worse, wind up hospitalized.

I love the thing about having multiple obi for each kimono. It really shows how alike people are that “spice up or expand your wardrobe with accessories” is a fairly universal concept. Me buying a new wrap and a Japanese woman 100 years ago buying a new obi were both thinking “yeah, this will go great with that thing I already have, and dress it up without breaking the bank” and I find that wonderful.

Watching this video makes me want to get out and wear my kimono! All of mine are vintage or antique. There's an importer I order bulk boxes through to recycle the garment fabric from. Sometimes they slip in a kimono, obi, or haori that's still in near-perfect condition. I always keep these to wear or give to friends as gifts. I have also bought kimono to wear from them. I'm so envious of all of the accessories shown! The most difficult part about kimono for me is finding the right size. I am very tall and admit some of my kimono are not the proper size for me.

I read somewhere that the intricate designs on the lining of kimono and juban gained popularity after noblemen started condemning lower class citizens for wearing kimono with flashy patterns, as it merged the gap between lower and higher class, so after that lower class people would put beautiful designs on the inside of their robes to still be able to express yourself a little without getting punished for it. Although I don't remember the source so it might be just a theory :(

Antique kimonos have size (people in the past were often short, mentioned this video) and cloth strength issues, so should take that into consideration. As an example, my length of clothing is 140cm and the sleeve length is about 85cm, that size is hard to find.

The shop lady is a graceful and lovely lady and her knowledge seems quite deep.

Don't let me go inside this shop ! I know I will want to see (and certainly buy) all the kimono, obi & other kitsuke accessoiries !! I felt in love with the tsuzure-ori obi we see at 25:19, I didn't know that this kind of obi with threads popping out exist :o ! By the way and more seriously, we see they have antique obidome. They are few artisans left able to make obidome nowadays so I wonder if okiya would be interested to buy these ones (even if the maiko's pocchiri are usually a little bigger than the ones we see). Thank you for this extraordinary video, we have discovered a wonderful shop, marvelous kimono & obi with many informations about them !!

"He said that ultimate beauty is achieved when you focus on parts that cannot be seen without taking them off." This is the same with a woman's body. When the clothing only hint at the beauty that lies underneath does it actually enhance the beauty. To leave it a mystery as opposed to a clothing choice that basically shows everything.

I would go there easily. I would love to buy a kimono. I have a antique Yukata from around the early 1700s I rescued from an Antique store. I say rescue because it needed some help. There were threads coming undone and it was dirty. Lucky enough I have a Japanese friend that could restore it without taking away from the value.🙂

I was going to listen to this in the car but I can't because I want to see everything! I have a few kimono but only one that I suspect may be from the showa period. It has beautiful long sleeves and a large komon pattern.

I was so happy tomoko choose the green i really like the green one on her. I think red and orange suit harumi better becase her warmer skin tone.

Im new. A recent video I watched on your channel spoke of parts of the movie Memoirs of a Geisha not being available to watch in Japan. I can't remember if you said the same was true for the book. I read the book and the magical way the author described the kimonos in the story evoked breathtaking visuals in my imagination. I cannot stress enough how wonderfully the writer described each one in the story. I thought surely nothing in this world could be as beautiful as those kimonos. They are works of art pure and simple

Kimono can be so bright, colorful, vibrant and beautiful, demonstrating how much individuality the Japanese of the past seem to have. How and why is it that most modern Japanese seem to have lost that sense of individuality and favoring a "normal" or "common" decorum. Not to mention preferring "duller" colors for their fashion.

oh, this brings back memories, I remember being in Kyoto and going to buy Kimono's for my mother and aunts and sister-in-law while I was over in Japan in the army, and oh what an experience that was. It was really fun do to they were not with me they were in the States so you can guess what a circus that was. No internet no google or anything at the time but luckily I was dating a Japanese girl at the time who helped me.

Wow! I can't believe these are antique! They look brand new. The colors are so vibrant and not faded at all! What's the secret? Is it only because they are made of silk? Modern clothing lose their colors after a couple of washes.
