Susoyoke is like a half slip worn under your kimono, and this particular susoyoke is given from my mom's friend. The lady in her 90's won't wear kimonos anymore, so she just gave it to me.
Regular susoyoke is just plain and doesn't have patterns or any prints on it. However, this is different. I guess it was made in the 20's or the 30's. It's very retro, isn't it?
I really like 1920-1930's kimono. I had a friend who collected them, they are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteReally? I do too! Your friend's kimono must be super beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYes, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your messages and asking about the earthquake. So sorry that some Japanese students died. So sad for their families.
I thought the earthquake wasn't that big. But now so many people were killed by the earthquake and lost their houses. I'm happy you are safe!
