It was cloudy.
Today there was 2013 KIMONO FASHION FESTIVAL in Yokohama. This was my biggest event of this month. There were about 200 Kimono models. And I was one of them. It started at 14:00 and ended at 17:00. I was asked to come at 13:30 and had my hair set at 14:00 and got dressed kimono at 15:00 and had to standby at 15:40 and 16:10. Therefore I was not sure what was going on and could not see anything. I participated in Scene 9 and there were about 20 models there. We wore Homongi (訪問着), formal wear. Since this was the festival, the way of tying Obi (帯), sash was different from the regular Otaiko (お太鼓).
I participated with three friends and met some companion who went to Gokayama and Hidatakayama together in July. We took a memorial photo after the show.
Three of us went out for dinner.
It was a long day and I got tired. But I am very glad everything went well.
Recently Japanese cuisine and food culture were enrolled as UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage. I hope someday Kimono culture will be listed and known to the world.
