「最近について」Recent Media Coverage
Can you believe its already September?? The past months sure have gone by like a whirlwind. Compared to the past years I suddenly got a bit of media coverage all at once, which I’d like to share here (also partly as a diary to my future self, haha). ご機嫌いかがですか? いやー、もう9月なんですね。なんだか時がたつのが早くて参っちゃいます(年寄りです 笑)。夏ばてしてるんではないか、と思っていらっしゃる方々に(?)、近況についてご報告します。 The Japan Times Due to the “KimOhNo” incident I got interviewed for The Japan... -
「秋の着物コーデ」Favourite autumn kimono looks 2018
Autumn seemed to have passed by in the blink of an eye. Feeling bad for having neglected my blog all too much (I update all my kimono looks primarily on my instagram, but realized it’s a shame to let my own page slide..)

「夏の思い出 2018」Summer throwback - Bon dance, Awa odori and Yukata

You probably know already that Japan... -
「戌年」Happy New Kimono Year!
Happy New Year also on my blog! Thanks so much for reading in the past year and here is to hoping you are having an awesome 2018 – hopefully in kimono!

「着物ワークショップ」Kimono workshops in NYC
During and after the Fudangi exhibition I wrote about in my last post, I also scheduled my first time ever kimono related workshops and some photo shoots. (Because how often do you have the chance to capture the NYC skyline with kimono?) ニューヨークにきてます! 前の記事で紹介したニューヨークにある「普段着物展示会」の前後にワークショップや着物の撮影もしてみました。 (着物姿をニューヨークで撮るならインパクトあるかなと思って・・笑) Prior to my trip I asked my followers on social media what kind of workshop they would like to... -
「きものサローネ2017」Kimono Salone
Like last year, I also joined the Kimono Salone event in Nihonbashi again. Because it was just before my New York trip I am super late to put everything into a proper blog post – but the pictures from the fashion show are too nice to keep them a secret. Kimono Salone is a kimono event where many kimono brands and artisans gather to...
