When I went for a training in Japan, we were able to experience the Japanese way. Indeed, there is more to Japan than just technology. It is a mixture of modernity and tradition.
I've always wanted to wear the kimono. Alhamdulillah, what a better way to wear it than being able to do so in its country of origin? #toomuchblessings
There is an event in the place that we stayed, Hiroshima International Plaza, for the Kimono and Yukata wearing session. There were two sessions: Kimono came first for the girls because we were expected to do more picture-taking, and Yukata session for the boys came afterwards. The first kimono given to me was that of Ate She's (the dark blue one). But, being a pink addict like I am, I persuaded her to exchange kimono with me. hahaha Of course, we were taught about the process of wearing it which is a long and tedious one. T__T I still am so terrible at wearing the obi (kimono belt).
The entire experience was surreal. I can still remember the thrill I had when we are wearing it. This dress is just so perfect for hijabis. I sure would love to wear it again ... in Kyoto. heheh
