I want everyone around the world to see this.
A certain designer said:
“A fusion of kimono and traditional West African clothing. The kimono industry should look toward the global market.”
I believe this is completely wrong.
Japanese kimono have a unique aesthetic that values harmony with nature and the four seasons. I believe that delicate colors and patterns, as well as understated beauty, reflect the sense of beauty that Japanese people have long cherished.
I hold traditional conservative views, so I do not like the idea of incorporating colors and patterns from other cultures into Japanese kimono at all.
Do you find this kimono beautiful?
