I would like to do this too someday, not exactly wear kimono everyday, but my country's traditional clothing. We mostly only think of traditional clothing as costumes for weddings and special occasions, and forget that our ancestors wore them everyday (though not as elaborate like wedding attire).
My calligraphy teacher’s mum here in taiwan is a seamstress, as well as a calligrapher, who makes qipao/cheongsam , and she wears qipao every day, and has been since she was 18 years old! Now at 75, it’s amazing that she has the same qipaos in her cupboard that she made when she was in her 20s… and she still wears them all. She even has sleep qipao… it’s amazing.
Now, i’m learning from her how to tailor a qipao and hopefully will be able to inherit the craft from her, along with her son.
From having a goal to build a wardrobe to understanding your "whys" behind the practice, I felt everything.
I am so grateful for you to have done such a personal and inspirational video! I believe this kimono lifestyle fits you very well because you chose it. You never mentioned what people tell you, second thoughts or judgements of any kinds. You are genuinely enjoying what feels right *to you* -besides you literally say it throughout the video XD.
Can I had one more thing: your house looks gorgeous! Wow, what a peaceful and relaxing indoor.
I wish to wear kimono to spread beauty (that's my goal). In addition, I want my outfit to inspire people and shines joy. Voilà, vielen danke, merci beaucoup: I am so proud to be your student! Love from France, Laurène ~~
When I started reading your comment I was kind of “OMG! This sounds like Laurène!”... and it was you!! 😂❤️❤️ thanks for your sweet comment 😘 talk to you soon 🦔
@@BillyMatsunaga Knowing that I sound like me is very flattering hihi ☺
The color of the men's kimono is so beautiful, and it compliments your eye color too. Thanks for a comprehensive look into your life in kimono.
My goal is to wear kimono once a week and start figuring out how I like to wear it. I now have a bit of a reputation but it makes it easier ☺️
My dear, I completely related to your statement about never finding your personal style. I've always bounced around and done my best to "blend" styles//trends together and even though it brings me joy, sometimes it just isn't enough.
Slowly, in the last year, I've begun curating a kimono collection but I lack the confidence to actually wear them out in public.
Hopefully one day I'll get my "Billy" moment and truly have that feeling of being beautiful.
You're such an inspiration. ❤
I really hope that I can help somehow so you get that “Billy moment” 💜
@@BillyMatsunaga Oh, you're a peach! Seriously, you're my FAVOURITE "cos•tuber" on this platform! And I say that with complete honesty!
I look forward to supporting you and your channels in the future! Might give me that push to continue my journey!
I am in awe! I’ve always stared in amazement at people wearing kimono, both Japanese and foreigners.
I feel self conscious in my own “western” clothes, but have always dreamt of wearing a kimono / yukata. I don’t have the confidence.
You are inspiring❤️
Being the only person that I know that wears kimono everyday in Japan I used to word kimono every single day when I was living in Japan because I have no western clothes and I love wearing kimono that's insane I got to go to Osaka very soon because I miss all my friends and I cannot wait to take out my kimonos and wear it again
Been watching your channel for a couple of years now, but just got around to this video! I am also a Westerner with a Japanese husband and love to wear kimono but definitely don't wear it everyday (only special occasions). Since we live in the US, incorporating Japanese culture and language into our household is very important for us as we raise our mixed-race sons. We speak Japanese in our home and live a pretty Japanese lifestyle in terms of daily life, cooking, etc. but perhaps we should wear traditional clothes more often so it's normalized for our boys :) thank you for all your videos!
I just wanted to thank you for being so real and candid with us. Many youtubers/ people on social media only show the "perfectness" of their lives and its so reassuring to have you be honest. It's comforting =)
I can relate. I feel like me in a blouse, a vest, and a floor length skirt. Any thing shorter than tea-length, I feel naked. I try to let each of my kids wear what they are most comfortable in. It's important. Thank you for being here. You have helped my oldest be brave about wearing kimono. She only has one, so far. But as soon as I can get her sewing machine to her, she will have many more. Thank you, thank you.
Franzl lil tippity running! 😍 Very cute! And so sorry to hear that one of the fabric/craft stores closed suddenly.
Du bist eine unglaublich faszinierende Persönlichkeit 💜 dich in einem Slipknot T-Shirt zu sehen, ist irgendwie verrückt 🤭 ich fühl mich sehr verbunden 🖤 Vielen, vielen Dank für dieses Video 😸 Liebe Grüße aus München
It's really interesting to see how you wear wafuku in your day-to-day life outside of lessons. I have two kimono which are silk iromuji as I use them for tea ceremony, and I'm really scared of wearing them around casually because I would have no way to have them cleaned if something were to happen. But perhaps I can get some practice by wearing my yukata around the house. ^_^ I'll also be on the look out for a second-hand polyester (or other more easily washable) kimono.
Feeling beautiful is the most important part!
When you started talking about reshooting content I felt that. It was interesting to see you talk about how you add translations though. That's something I feel like I need to start doing for my content. Especially since I Have a lot of family who watches my videos but only speak Spanish.
Ayyy a fellow hedgehog owner! Thank you for this vlog, it was lovely to look into your life. As someone who wants to slowly transition into wearing kimono more often, but also doesn't go out much, wearing yukata at home is genius and it was originally bath wear anyway so I can't believe I never thought of it. Thank you for all of your knowledge!
Super inspiring and informative! Thank you! ♥
Thank you for the very informative and wonderful videos!! They are so fun to watch!!😀😀
Thank you! It is very interesting to have a hint into your routine as a youtuber (and more 😅)! You work so hard to give us this content which is always informative and so nicely done ! See you soon ^^
Lovely video! Have you tried freezing a portion of your sourdough starter? If done correctly, it does not kill the yeast. That way if you have too much starter or need to start it over again, you will have something ready to use.
Fascinating! Please continue providing this interesting content
Authentic. Thanks for sharing your slice of life.
What a lovely video!
It really shines the light on the thought process behind choosing a kimono according to circumstances, demystifying it.
Im sorry to hear that the 2 craft stores you visited were gone, It really is painful when the stores you like get closed. I am still sore about a bookstore in our building getting closed years ago.
Also it was really exciting to see that coffee filter in action!!!
Hope you're having a good day!
I love this UA-cam channel! I have been binge watching. I have learned so much.
Thank you for sharing sneak peeks into your life, Billy! it's so nice you decided to share your day to day. It makes me miss Japan a lot!
I really enjoyed this video. I was a littly angry about something personal when I started and now you changed my mood to happy and relaxed :,D Thank you
Your videos are so Informative and incredibly aesthetically pleasing, thank you for sharing!
Thank you ❤️❤️
Hello! I discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I’ve already watched almost all of you videos!
I want to start wearing kimono part time eventually, I’ve loved Japanese fashion and culture since I was twelve. but unfortunately I currently don’t have the money to buy or the time to make my own. I live in a country that Japanese culture is not very popular so it’s very hard to find them. The one shop that did sell authentic kimono closed down🥺 I’m doing research right now and practicing my sewing whenever I can so I can make my first one. I love watching your channel and seeing how you live and see you make own accessories.
I'm in love with your polyester Kimono (the one you're wearing while baking the bread, but the other one is beautiful too) it's my favorite color! 😍
I'm sure that was a lot of work and it's very much appreciated. You've inspired me to wear my kimono instead of just looking and dreaming.... 'one day I will wear them'.... but now, I've decided that 'one day' is 'today'. Thank you so much.
Your home is beautiful, your hedgehog is SO ADORABLE, and your husband has the most lovely eyes. You both do. A very cute couple. It was lovely to have a glimpse into your life in Japan.
Vielen dank, Arigato Gozaimashita, & Thank you - from Australia
Thank you so much to have share your daily life with us. It's so inspiring ^^ give me goals to wear kimono more often, I want to wear it at work when "work in an office" will re-started haha. (And your bread look wonderfull ☺️ not to forget Franzl who is the cuttest 😍)
Frankly is adorable! What a treat, you have a wonderful UA-cam loving it!
Excellent vidéo as always👏👍😉!!
I have two yukata and I love to wear them especially in summer, I have worn one in May at Japan Day In Düsseldorf in Germany and I loved it. At home I live in a little village it’s not something I would wear outside to go to the convenient store. But I don’t mind opening my door and getting the mail.
I have both a real silk kimono, but don’t have a Obi for it and it’s more orange colors and similar tones. I love it much and maybe if I find out with Obi suits best I will wear it once I’m able to celebrate Japan day once again. I’ll have to rewatch your videos again to see if I missed maybe one about what colors can be worn together. I’m lucky it has the shorter sleeves since I’m a married woman and over 50 😉☺️. Thank you for showing and teaching us too.
Much love
This video is really inspiring, I hope someday to put the same beauty and tidiness (and treats) in my daily life.
We never herd miss billy to talk in german pls and the video is amazing so informative specially about the part about what people wear out and what people wear when staying at home.
Thanks for sharing your week with us. That bread looked so tasty! Brings back memories of making sourdough from scratch when I lived in Tokyo. The smell of freshly baked bread is the best, isn’t it?! Also, I’ve never known anyone who has a pet hedgehog; he’s so cute! With regards to weird fashion: I grew up in the 80’s and the clothes were atrocious- you couldn’t get anything without shoulder pads, which looked horrible on me. That’s when I started sewing :-)
めちゃくちゃ素敵です！ありがとう😊
I follow You with a lot of Love from Budapest Hungary! 💟 🍀
yay bread and Kimono!
I have 15 kimono and 5 obi so far 👘🪷 I plan to add up to my wardrobe
Love your videos! Aloha from Hawaii 🏝🌊🌈☀️
Thank you ❤️❤️
Where did you get that kimono in the thumbnail? It's so gorgeous
I'd like to wear kimono every day (as you said not really all the time but most the time), I really feel the Japanese culture very close to me after studying it and studying it for eight years now, idk but every time I say this everyone tells me that I'm a "cultural appropriator" or just something like that. These days I feel terrible for this, I'm very tired
Could you do a video explaining how to make a kimono raincoat?
I was wondering where you find the board that you use when sewing? i have something similar but I've used it till it's falling apart and need to get a new one. And I would like a pretty one, like yours.
I bought mine on Rakuten 😊
@@BillyMatsunaga Thank you!! :)
wenn man so vergleicht finde ich das du in einem kimono mehr zur Geltung kommst. dein gesicht hat mehr ausstrahlung und kommt zur geltung und die ausstrahlung ist ist schöner. kann gut verstehen warum du jedentag oder sogut wie immer Kimonos trägst. ich (m) fange gerade auch an kimonos zu tragen und bin gespannt wo die reise hin geht.
Oh, da bin ich auch gespannt. Vielen Dank für das liebe Kommentar ❤️
@@BillyMatsunaga immer gern. Hab mir einfach mal ein paar Bilder auf insta angeguckt und hab oft das Gefühl das kimonos einfach ansich wunderschön sind. Da sollte man sich nicht für schämen diese zu tragen. Vor allem wenn man sieht wie moderne Mode zum Teil aussieht trag ich deutlich lieber einen kimono❤️
Hello from Hongkong 🥳 Thank you very much for your videos. I always want to wear the yukata for sleeping. Could you please teach me which kind of obi (I mean the texture) should I buy and which kind of obi style should I tie? I always enjoy watching NHK morning 15 minutes Series and I found the yukata which the actresses wore are very nice. I hope you could help me how to tie the obi for sleeping 😴 Thank you very much 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hello fellow Hong Kong person! Try out Karuta hanhaba obimusubi カルタ帯結び, it is quite flat so it should be comfortable for sleeping. There are plenty of tutorials on this obimusubi - from Billy, it’s a video titled along the lines of obi tie for back pack.
MAD guy, thank you very much for your reply and answer. Thanks again 😊😊
You husband seems quiet but sweet and calm. How'd you meet? I wanna hear the cute story ❤️
How do you determine an antique kimono's manufacture era, I have purchased couple of kimonos tagged as 1900s-present, not giving a determined time period and I'd like to have better understanding of them.
Where can i buy book About junihitoe on online
merci :)
I noticed when going outside on a rainy day, you are not protecting your feet. I'm thinking about those plastic shoe "tips" that can be attached to the shoes, I've seen some sold online, have you tried them? Maybe it's uncomfortable 😊
You have eating utensils as cabinet door handles? That would never work in my place, I'm so clumsy I'd most likely stab my hands constantly. lol. What kind of work does your husband do? He looks important by the way he dresses. Very sharp.
No worries. Those are cabinet door handles, so you can’t stab yourself 😊
What the word for a household kimono 👘 Because I know what to buy for my girlfriend i like for to come home relax have something she reflex on the day she had !
Thank you Ms.Billie
Yukata
I have a Yukata but I can never find out how to do my obi ahhh it’s too hard
SEEING THE SLIPKNOT SHIRT WAS LIKE GETTING HIT BY A TRUCK
R u the one stealing all the Bisell Rakuma kimono, Billy XD
do you listen to slipknot or was it just an old shirt laying around? Curious about if you listen to stuff like that at all,lol.
Yes, I listen to “stuff like that” ☺️😂
@@BillyMatsunaga thats cool! I wouldnt have guessed you were in to metal. may I ask for a few band favorites or suggestions to listen to from you? Music is a big part of peoples lives and with youtube or social medias you see a lot of generic light and fluffy background music not so much the darker side.
Would you be interested in doing a video on tabi socks 足袋?
It’s coming/planned... one day 😉
@@BillyMatsunaga That's good to hear!
No, no, no, no, no! No polyester!
