YUKATA:浴衣

The Tenjin Festival is held in Osaka on July 24th and 25th. So my daughter dressed up with Yukata.


So here's displayed her Yukata with lovely full of red and pink flowers motives on it.


Yukata was a summer casual kimono those days but nowadays we used to wear at summer festival.





And this is called Obi which is a kind of long and wide belt.




this is butterfly motif


Obi is tied and rolled on the Yukata with variety of design. when we wear kimono or Yukata, we need someone's help acturally.

How do i look? Perfect!!
This design is called Bunko-musubi





And these are Geta. we put it on instead of shoes at Yukata

And NOW luckly i am watching the live broadcast about tenjin festival on TV program with fun.
