Yukata (yukata) kimono

 


Yukata is the lowest class of kimono.
Most of the fabrics are made of thin cotton, which is breathable and quick-drying.
The obi should be a half-width obi.
It is characterized by being worn directly on the skin without a nagajyuban (a type of undergarment).
Unlike other kimonos, there is no need to fold it up at the waist.
Another unique feature of yukata is that it is worn with geta instead of zori sandals.
It is often worn at summer festivals and fireworks displays.
In the past, it was worn after bathing or as sleepwear.
There are a wide variety of patterns, and I think it's a very fun kimono. 
I highly recommend it.

Well, see you next time.
