    Thank you for sharing your haul. Great fun to watch and I'm so grateful for the additional information. Your channel is just wonderful.
    The Higaki pattern kimono is GOOOOOORGEOUS. Well, they all are, but I love that purple grey colour, the pattern, everything. The obi worn with it is perfect. Again, they're all lovely.

    I was wondering if you have a video or if you could make a video, where you show how you can tell the difference of material used in obi or kimono and the difference in weaves. 💙
    If there is too much information then can we get a series for it?

    So many beautiful kimono and obi that it's hard to choose.
    I have a question for you. Here in the US we have some costumers getting all upset and angry when a random white person wears clothing specific to a country or culture and screaming "cultural appropriation." Okay, maybe not literally screaming, but I think you understand. Specifically something like wearing Native American headdress or clothing when you're not Native American. So my question is, have you ever been accused of Cultural Appropriation when wearing kimono? Either by Japanese or by other non-Japanese people being gatekeepers and being offended by anything they deem wrong. There's no specific reason for me asking other than curiosity,

    They look so beautiful especially the lavender grey one. I dream of the day I can actually go to Japan and one of the things I look forward to doing would be shopping for thrift kimono, obi, and accessories as they are so expensive for me to buy here in the US. I think I may come home with a whole new wardrobe if I went to Japan.

    • @BillyMatsunaga
      @BillyMatsunaga  2 роки тому +3

      That sounds like a fun video, but that’s gonna be so hard. Retail depends on the craft the kimono is made with, so it can differ between $300-$30,000 … you probably can tell that is why I will really have to think about how to make that video fair 🤔 But thanks for the awesome idea!!

    Each of these outfits is beautiful, but I'm most fascinated by the kumiobi. I've done some thin kumihimo and I can only imagine the complexity of braiding something so wide!

    Great haul!!! I feel Tsumugi kimono are underappreciated. They become softer the more they are worn and they just look classic. I cant wait to go kimono shopping in Japan. Super great finds!

    • @BillyMatsunaga
      @BillyMatsunaga  Рік тому

      Where I live, tsumugi are the most worn kimono. You barely see anything else being worn as casual kimono. So definitely not unappreciated. Also, some tsumugi weaves take almost a decade to finally become softer and they’re famous for that.

  • @abee8405
    @abee8405 Рік тому

    At first I thought there could be nothing better than the lavender grey with the gorgeous graphic obi, but the last outfit is at least as gorgeous. I just love chirimen silk, the pattern is darling and the gradation obi is wonderful. Also, the Edo-komon kimono and the midnight blue check kimono are very, very beautiful. Also, the combination one. Honestly, I admire your (comparative) restraint in this very well stocked shop ;-)

    • @BillyMatsunaga

    I love how you match kimono and Obi! They look so beautiful. Honestly looking at those kimono I would have passed them up because they’re too “plain” for me, but when you put the right Obi on with them they look SO beautiful. I would love to see a video on how you style your kimono and Obi. I’m so bad at that. I’m starting to get a big kimono and Obi collection but idk how to style them together. 😬

    It was so pretty, interesting, and informative. I am shocked by the second hand prices. I wish you had explained the price change between used and new. Even the thrift stores here don't mark down clothes that much. Maybe... and I'm curious about what the situation is and why.

    • @BillyMatsunaga
      @BillyMatsunaga  Рік тому

      That’s super complicated, but keep in mind that the super cheap second hand kimono very often have weird tailoring or are stained or have been in the store already for years.

  • @lenabreijer1311
    @lenabreijer1311 Рік тому

    I love all the combinations but that Thai silk ikat obi is the best. I have a skirt I found second hand with that kind of woven pattern. I took some courses in dyeing techniques and that one just stuns me. I can't wrap my head around dying the threads and then weaving and have the pattern appear like magic!
