Wearing a kimono gives you a sense of posture and poise, perfectly matching the solemn and festive atmosphere of the New Year 👘✨
・Experience a special and memorable moment
Visiting a shrine in a kimono allows you to enjoy a vibrant and unforgettable experience, different from your everyday clothing ❣❣
・Kiso-hajime – The Japanese Tradition
There is a beautiful Japanese custom called “Kiso-hajime”, where wearing a newly purchased kimono at the start of the year is believed to bring good luck 🎵
・A great time for first-timers
During New Year, you’ll see many people wearing kimonos on TV or around town. With the popular image of “New Year = Kimono”, it’s easy and fun for those who don’t usually wear one to try it ✨
