振袖
振袖 (furisode) is a traditional Japanese kimono characterized by its long, flowing sleeves. Typically worn by young women, especially during special occasions like coming-of-age ceremonies, weddings, and formal events, the furisode is often made from vibrant fabrics adorned with intricate patterns and designs. The long sleeves symbolize youth and unmarried status.
The furisode is usually paired with an obi, a wide belt that secures the kimono. This garment is an important part of Japanese culture, reflecting the wearer's personality and social status. Many women choose to wear a furisode to celebrate significant life milestones, making it a cherished piece of attire in Japan.
