'In Nara Period (710-94)'


Remind me of Japanese Old Tales 'Princess Kaguya'. the clothes that she wear known as garment, called 'kosode' (small sleeves). The 'Kosode' was worn, first as underclothes and later as an outer garment, by both women and men. It known as a kimono from the 18th century. Most of the short-term visitors likely to see these elegant garments during their stay. Now people often wear it as celebration.
