@Linda G.: That footwear is called geta. Comparing to the modern shoes, probably they are not very comfortable, but I'm sure they are more comfortable than most of the high-heeled shoes... :)

@Carmen Henesy: Very nice! Do you have photos from then?

@Frank: Thank you!

@Misaki: Multumesc, cu siguranta o sa ma imbrac si eu intr-o yukata. An vazut deja un magazin in Ikebukuro cu niste modele care mi-au placut mult... :)

@andre: Thanks!

@seyma: Thank you! :)

@karen: Yes, me too!

@Joanne Olivieri: Thanks, I'm very glad you liked it!

@whipcracker: I will surely take a photo session dressed like this ;)

@Joshua Zimmerman: Hello Kitty yukatas? Cool, I haven't seen any... :)

@Kaeru: Yes, I talken with them before the photo and they were very nice and posed for me.
11/08/09 @ 19:26
Hi Muza-chan! Great photos! The colors truly come out! I just want to ask something about the first photo, did you ask them to pose for you, or did they pose when they saw you taking a photo? I often see yukata clad women but I'm usually too shy to take their photo so I end up just taking photos from behind.

Every year there is a wonderful Yukata festival in Hiroshima. Its amazing to see a flood of Japanese people in Yukatas. Especially Hello Kitty ones.

The old and the new come together as one. Don't know if that is something that would catch on here, being cowboy country. glad to see that tradition still lives on in Japan.:D The clothing is very colorful, and a delight to the eyes. Can't wait to see you next year in one. Great article and photos, keep it coming, Ganbaette ne!

These are beautiful and delicate kimonos. I love seeing traditional styles of attire which is something we do not have here in the US. Thanks for sharing these with us. I very much enjoyed seeing these styles.
11/06/09 @ 23:56
They all look so beautiful. I'm glad to see it is becoming popular for younger people too!!!
11/06/09 @ 23:52
oh God, they look so perfect!! i am wondering about this whole kimono stuff.. still..

love.
11/06/09 @ 21:23
beautiful photos:)and kimono too
11/06/09 @ 18:56
Am purtat si eu yukata, am adus-o cu mine in Romania si ma uit cu drag la ea din cand in cand, sperand sa o mai port o data ^_^ Initial nu am vrut sa o imbrac, mergeam la hanabi la Osaka si nu as fi vrut sa jignesc pe cineva purtand un vesmant traditonal japonez:oops:. Are o stranie fascinatie asupra mea insa, am cedat si nu mi-a parut rau o clipa. In kaisoku mai multe doamne in varsta japoneze mi-au zis ca ma prinde (sunt bruneta si aproape de silueta japoneza, ceva mai inalta) si, desi am stat mai dreapta ca nicicand, iar geta nu au fost cele mai confortabile incaltari, m-am simtit extraordinar. Go for it! :)
11/06/09 @ 18:23
The clothing is beautiful but the women are gorgeous. It IS wonderful to see the younger generation preserving the heritage and traditions of the past. I am surprised to see the getas worn without tabis. It looks rather informal and not as comfortable. Your photos are wonderful.

These are exquisite! When my colleague and I were invited to Japan ( all expenses paid ) to speak on forensic nursing topics, we were at Shiga Medical College. The night we spoke there, our friend, Dr. Izumi Takaese asked all the female faculty to wear yukatas. She had also gifted us with yukatas and had ladies come to help us dresss. It was such fun - though I was a big chubby, even for the larger size one. We laughed so much and had the most wonderful evening.

The dressing style is both pretty and colorful. Your photographs capture the dress very well. The shoes in the fifth photograph from the bottom caught my eye. As I scroll up the photographs, I see another photograph with a woman wearing a pair of similar shoes. Those shoes are not a familiar style for me. They don't look comfortable to me. Have you ever worn that style of shoe? Are they comfortable?

Sure makes them look really beautiful! If girls here liked to wear traditional Swedish clothes, I'd just laugh at them^^

A Photo-essay on the Yukata
In Japan, old and new are joined not only in architecture, but also in the dressing style. One of the main aspects I love about Japan is the fact that it is one of the few modern countries where the traditional dressing is still "trendy".
