A yukata is a traditional Japanese garment made of lightweight cotton, typically worn during the summer months. It is characterized by its simple design, featuring wide sleeves and a wrap-around style. Yukatas are often adorned with colorful patterns and are commonly worn at festivals, fireworks displays, and other casual events. The yukata is usually paired with an obi, a wide belt that secures the garment. While traditionally worn by both men and women, modern variations exist, and they are often available in various styles and colors. Yukatas are a popular choice for tourists seeking to experience Japanese culture.
