Interesting Kimono At The Baltimore Museum Of Art’s Exhibit “Kimono And Obi: Romantic Echos From

Interesting kimono at the Baltimore Museum of Art’s exhibit “Kimono and Obi: Romantic Echos from Japan’s Golden Age.” It was commissioned by an American man for his wife for their vow renewal. The Japanese artisan couldn’t create a traditional wedding kimono as the woman was already married. And felt that a kurotomesode worn by married relatives of the bride would be wrong as well. So this was his artistic solution. #weddingkimono #wafuku #kimono #kimonolife #yuzen #kurotomesode

If I Remember Correctly, "E" Is Wearing A Tsumugi, Tsukesage Kimono. I Love The More Formal Tsumugis
If I Remember Correctly, "E" Is Wearing A Tsumugi, Tsukesage Kimono. I Love The More Formal Tsumugis

If I remember correctly, "E" is wearing a tsumugi, tsukesage kimono. I love the more formal tsumugis - that juxtaposition between formal and casual. Also her use here of the red accents turns this into a fun, young coordination!

This is the lovely kimono that I am so proud to own! A few years back, Umeno okiya was selling a few of their pieces, and I was so privileged to be able to purchase this. I feel like I was able to contribute in my small way to the purchase of new hikizuri for the okiya. 💕👘 To have a piece that belonged to the beautiful and talented ladies at Umeno is beyond perfect. 😍🙏🏼
