Although Japan now is a modern country, influenced with western style, but Japanese Brides must wear their traditions costumes, The man must be painted white from head to toe as a symbol of purity. The Japanese wedding dress consists of a long white kimono called shiro-maku. Japanese brides also wear their hair in an elaborate traditional style decorated with combs and other accessories. During the Japanese ceremony a hood covers the Japanese brides head to signify that she will be a serene and patient wife.

Japanese brides also carry traditional accessories much like the “something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue” of the American wedding. They carry a small, sack-like purse, known as hakoseko, and a delicate sheathed dagger, called a kaiken.

Yukata (æµ´è¡£) is the simple model of Kimono, Japanese Traditional Dress.

The yukata is a japanese summer kimono worn by both men and women. The name yukata comes from the word “yu” (bath) and “katabira” (under clothing ). Thousandsof years ago, Court Nobles wore linen “yukatabira” which were draped loosely after taking a bath. It gradually became worn by japanese warriors and then by the general public when the sophisticated japanese public bath became popular. Today, the traditional japanese yukata is widely used for everything from festivals, ryokan, summer daily wear to simple night attire. In Japan, the yukata is the most popular daily clothing wear and is beloved for its 100% lightweight cotton fabric. The fabric designs vary from the traditional plain cross hatch pattern to more colorful scenery designs.

People wearing yukata are a common sight in Japan at fireworks displays, bon-odori festivals, and other summer events. The yukata is also frequently worn after bathing at traditional Japanese inns. Though their use is not limited to after-bath wear, yukata literally means bath(ing) clothes.

Japanese yukatas are one size fits all and measured in length. Length is measured from shoulder to the yukata bottom. Our beautiful yukata make wonderful robes and great japanese gifts!
