Wear Kimono In Japan Is A Must⁉️🫣👘

Wear Kimono in Japan is a must🤣🤫 I rent this Kimono in Kyoto Area. So, what is Kimono? The kimono is a traditional Japanese garment and the national dress of Japan. The kimono is a wrapped-front garment with square sleeves and a rectangular body, and is worn left side wrapped over right, unless the wearer is deceased. What is Kimono Means? Kimono has Meaning 'the thing to wear', the term kimono was first adopted in the mid-19th century. Originally worn by commoners, or as an undergarment by the aristocracy, from the 16th century kimono became the principal item of dress for all classes and both sexes. Fun Fact: About a hundred years ago, most people in Japan wore kimono every day😮. Can Foreigners Wear Kimono In Japan? Context and intent are important here. It goes without saying that wearing a kimono to shame, sexualise or make fun of the Japanese culture is offensive. But wearing a kimono in Japan as a foreigner because you appreciate the culture and want to experience it is completely fine. It's not only allowed, it's encouraged. #tokyotrip #kimono #japan #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #celebratewithtrip
