​@@mauvehawaii they have to be graceful tho. and they have to "interact with" customers that way, as well. knights have to carry swords and shields, and fight so ofc they're stronger. but i'd say oirans must be pretty strong as well

Simply stunning.

Harumi looks SO TALL, and the wig and white makeup really make her look larger than life in an amazing way. That the attire literally put the oiran above the crowd for her walk must have really been something to see back then. Like Tomoko said, it must have made the oiran look like idols. Although, now I have to wonder if oiran didn't have amazing strength to carry all that weight. Wearing 30 kilos WHILE playing an instrument? No wonder the training was so intense! Edited for typo.

Agreed! Tomoko looks so elegant in her kimono.

The explanation of wearing white makeup in candlelight was fascinating, but now I really want to see Harumi's made-up face in actual candlelight! Made me realize I've never seen the white makeup as it's meant to be seen!

I think I'm seeing a possible reason why big/tall shoes are popular in modern times, especially for women to wear. I'd love to learn more about why the Taka-Geta became the shoe of choice.

2 questions for you Shogo; 1. How normal is it to wear a kimono in Japan these days? 2. would you be willing to do a brief history of Japan. About the eras, a few things that happened during that time etc Thank you for the video!!

Wow no wonder Oiran were considered stylish influencers back in the day, those kimono were gorgeous! Harumi looked beautiful and it seems like she was already taking the persona of an oiran at the end 😊Aww are those bunnies on Tomokos kimono?!! Omg I love it 🐰❤️

I was always told that the reason why the obi was in the front for Oiran and Yujio is that they took it off several times a night to service clients. I never knew that married women wore their obi tied in the front as well.

@kangelsb0xcvtterr

Жыл бұрын

I heard another thing is because originally noblewoman put them in the front to show that they had servants to do their work, and so they couldnt bend down, and then the Oiran and other people (sorry I don't know the terms) decided to wear it that way too, but the noblewoman did not want to be compared to prostitutes so they wore it on their back again. this is a very generalized explanation from my own memory though haha

Nagi forgot the rice at home.

Way back in the 80's, an art student friend of mine took me to the Art Mart, a building in downtown L.A. filled with shops where designers and interior decorators had stores meant for industry people, but on certain days the public could come in and buy. There was one store that had recently acquired the entire inventory of a wedding kimono rental outfit in Japan. They were selling the kimonos for $500 each. FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS. These were pieces that had rented for $300-$400 A DAY. I was frustrated and furious that I did not have the money to buy one, and it still makes me crazy that I couldn't. Those things were so magnificent, they were being sold as art pieces to hang on the wall. ARGH $500 ARGH HEADDESK.

The staff were so excited and happy to dress up the lady We all need that kind of encouragement in our lives ☺️

Comparing the Oiran Kimono with the Regular Kimono is really amazing and truly a little bit similar, but it's also very different. Harumi looked truly beautiful wearing the Oiran Kimono and the transformation was truly wonderful! Thank you so much for a wonderful video!

Harumi is so strong being able to wear all that. You look so pretty too. I totally understood when Tomoko said “I don’t want to stand here”🤣

The patience needed for the dressing to happen is unbelievable. These women have my greatest respect. Have actually witnessed similar dressing in Kyoto in 1972 when invited to a geisha house. It amazed me then and still does. These women and girls have my admiration 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏

Fantastic! Harumi looks lovely in that kimono. Back in the 1950s my mother took a trip to Japan and there was a photo studio doing the same thing, my mother looked cute too in the big wig and a simpler kimono set.

She is wearing an entire comforter set! And I love it! 🤩

Your wife looked magnificent in kimono. So regal! And the outer coat she chose was exquisite. The blue set off the embroidery colors so well. What a masterpie they made together!

Guys, how interesting, and people have little understanding how much dedication is involved in the smallest details! Thank you so much for explaining and sharing your culture with everyone. I find it surpassingly beautiful.

A beautiful model in a beautiful kimono! You are a very lucky man Shogo!

My neck and shoulders hurt seeing her in so much heavy dressing 😅 Props to Harumi!

Harumi looked so beautiful both in and out of the outfit today! Incredible layers and weight too!

Wow yet another beautiful transformation. Harumi looks amazing. Love learning about the history and culture of Japan. Thank you guys for bringing us this beautiful content ♡

That kimono is absolutely spectacular! I'm so jealous! This is something I've always wanted too wear, a kimono of the Edo period! Harumi you are so lovely! BTW- are you familiar with Miss Hokusai? It is my favorite anime.

Just watched this a few minutes ago. We are enjoying your series so very much. You, Harumi, your daughters and your associates are like family to us now and your visits are absolutely precious

Harumi looks so beautiful! so breath-taking in that kimono. im sad to hear women were risking frostbite in winter for beauty standard tho (which ik still happens even today with anorexia and bbl etc. people risking their health just for beauty) 😭 never knew that "saucy victorian ankle" thing was also a thing in japan

Harumi is incredibily cute! I think she should think about modelling these traditional outfits, it suits her so smoothly... Tomoko is beautiful and super cute as well, she should try them too!

After comparing the before and after shots, I must say that the way they painted on the mouth was the most impressive thing to me. You can really see the massive transformation from having no mouth, to having a mouth. Amazing! 👏👏👏

Very cool video! Great transformation. Especially liked learning more about the process of getting ready.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience ,she looked just gorgeous!

Thanks for showing this transformation! What gorgeous fabrics.

These videos are fantastic! They were always great but your editing and camera work have really improved! The music and how everything was cut make your videos very professional and polished!❤️

Thank you Shogo and team!! What a great experience for Harumi!!

A beautiful and very interesting look in to the tradition and wearing of the kimono. The style, history and WEIGHT is phenomenal, 30kgs, that is Military Grade!!!! So many styles, the footwear, unbelievable. Thank You very much for this video.

Hello Shogo and Harumi. Nagi is getting so big, a beautiful daughter. Thank you for sharing your experience in getting your photos done at that fine establishment. To bad we couldn't see them apply the makeup but seeing all that is involved with putting the outfit on and the different layers of cloth and the shoes. And the outfit weighs 40 kilos when finished, Japanese women must be strong indeed. This has given me a better insight to the past when these outfits were worn by high ranked ladies of the time. Thanks again and I hope your family stays well and safe.

So beautiful! She has such a great personality that showed through the makeup!

Was so fun to watch this video thank you

hey Shogo! Your videos are refreshing to watch. It's rare to see videos of japan that aren't yelling and obnoxious thumbnails

She looked so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

She looks so pretty! As much as I don't like what Oiran and Yujio had to go through I do like what they wear. Who made the kimono got skills!

Oh wow absolutely stunning and gorgeous! Such an amazing photo studio that offers this.

WOWWWWWWWWWW!! So beautiful. If I ever get to Kyoto, I’m so going to do this!!
