They are expensive. I’d love to see them being done/made.

Yo sounds like you got te full experience the first time around. The kimono look good in yah girl.sometimes I wonder why people don’t dress like that more often here but yeah the cost and environment.

😃Thanks man. For real, it was a lovely experience. After writing this post, I was looking back and realizing that I haven’t really had an experience like that since that time.
I haven’t really spent the new year in such a cultural setting since then. Maybe in bits and pieces but that first experience was “it”. When I was young … lol! 😂
You know when I first got here, I was surprised to see people in jeans. Lol!!! I was expecting more kimonos.
The kimonos are beautiful though it does take time to get them on. If I remember well, it probably took 40 minutes. Love to see people dressed up for special cultural events. 😃
