Do you know the event called "Kimono Salone"?
This is a major event in kimono and kimono fashion, which has been held mainly in COREDO Muromachi since 2012. Last year, the number of visitors was more than 10,000. What is the secret of its popularity...Whatever you say, the overwhelming gorgeousness that you can see! And it's a free event!
This year's event will be held twice in September and October. The September meeting has already ended, but I would like to introduce it briefly.
"Kimono marche" was held in YUITO, next to COREDO. There were about 75 kimono dealers who participated, and kimonos worn by each participating store elaborately at the entrance are slurried.
It is exhibited everywhere in the venue.
That team's yukata is a hot topic! There is also a back number.
The kimono on display is also popular. All participants can vote. It's also fun to find your favorite kimono and dressing!
At the store booth, all types of kimono and kimono goods are sold, from long-established stores to up-and-coming young people.
There is a convenient half-collar tape or kimono hanger that can be stored with closetts, and a stunning Yuzen dyeing that makes you feel like you are in the museum just by looking at it. There is also a special exhibition in Kyoto!
There is a demonstration corner of craftsmen in the venue.
There is also a sales corner for kits that can easily tie Japanese hair. You can actually tie Japanese hair (charged).
At the event corner, popular dressers gave tips on dressing and care courses, talk shows by popular cultural figures, stage for Nihon Buyo and shamisen, and even fashion shows. All of these can be viewed for free.
In addition, there is a corner where you can compare delicious Japanese sweets and Japanese sake drinks....。 Of course, there is also a kimono rental!
