Japanese girls always love kimono!!

2016.03.25

Life in Fukui

It seems that kimono culture has remarkably declined year by year
but the spirit of Japan such as enjoying kimono is still alive.
Even if preparation before wearing is so hard,
Japanese girls always like kimono very much!
The other day, a friend of mine decided to wear furisode(long-sleeved kimono),
chose nice one(rental kimono!), dressed overall with hair set, makeup and
artificial nails in a beauty salon which has a photo studio.
Then, finally a professional photographer took pictures of her beautifully.
He did the photo shoot not only in the studio but also at Shibata Shrine on location.

 

Here is one of the photos taken on that day.
It’s gorgeous, isn’t it? (H.S)
