    I went out to a japanese restaurant for my bday with my partner, and I wore kimono (he was my support :D). No one said anything, just the japanese staff & her friends and it was absolutely positive! Gave me a lot of confidance :)

      This! I want to do this for my birthday. I hope the global situation will be better in the summer so japanese restaurants in my country can open and i can do exactly this, wearing a kimono to my birthday in a japanese restaurant.

    This really makes me so happy. I always get so excited while I’m getting dressed but as soon as I get out on the street I immediately loose all that confidence. People always stare and it makes me fidgety and I’m always pulling and straightening things.

      Oh, we all know that feeling!! But I’m sure you look gorgeous ❤️ and ignore the ppl staring at you!

    I've wanted to wear a kimono for so long and someday I will. It's so beautiful and elegant. I do worry that people will be mad at me for "culture appropriation" and that scares me. Or being called a geisha would be a tiny bit rude. That being said, I really want to move to Japan someday because I love the culture, food and people so much. I have some things to learn about wearing kimono and that makes me excited and happy.

    I always DREAMED of wearing kimono. LIKE I WOULD DIE TO. I love the colors and patterns and the aforementioned symbolism. Ugh. I’m crying because it’s so gorgeous

    Have you watched Kimono Mom? Wondering what she is wearing over her Kimono while cooking and housework. Is it a type of apron or work smock?

    Do you have any tips on wearing kimono for larger women? I find it difficult to find kimono that don't gap too much.

    Yay! I really liked the panel the first time and I'm so glad to be able to watch it again! Thank you!
    I have my confidence issues still, but they're sorta specific, I'm not yet sure how to address them, but I will probably work something out :3

    Hi Billy! I’m just getting into the kimono world and i have yet to purchase an obiage and obimakura. Is there a way to make a make shift version of each? I imagine i can make an obi makura...but would a short scarf or piece of fabric be a suitable replacement for an obiage?

    • @BillyMatsunaga
      @BillyMatsunaga  4 года назад +6

      Of course you can use any other fabric as an obiage. Lots of ppl do that 😉

    Hi! I have a summer mofuku that has some sort of red stylized characters embroidered on the inside of the collar, i was wondering if maybe you'd know what it is?
