Late summer at least in Japan is still very hot. Kimono colors are supposed to turn darker and autumnish after the start of August, I still have fewer of those ^^;; but here are some cool yukata:

Mizu yukata (water whirls):

Asagao yukata (morning glory):

Midsummer heat affects what kimono you wear. Most kimono are sheer and yukata are nice when the occation allows it. These kimono might go well with July.

Ayame koushi kimono (iris colored lattice pattern) (also for June)

Igeta kimono (water well frame)

Soubi yukata (rose colored) and this red tsukesage (lily colored) are colorwise both more autumn-like, but the flowers bloom in the summer. Use if it feels fitting to the season :)

Summer is here and with it summer flowers like hydrangea and iris. Seasonal kimono colors follow the colors around us in the nature.

Mid-April is a time for Oiran Dochu procession organized in Asakusa. Here is my version of an oiran or more specifically tayuu.

Another totally different profession, but likewise spectacularly dressed one is a maiko. This one I've tried to dress up in the spirit and colors of April. The color scheme is "fuji" as in wisteria.

Happy New Year! I picked these kimonos for the start of the year. They feel fairly wintery to me.

A little something for the end of the year. Camellia (tsubaki) are traditionally a flower of december in Japan and snow will hopefully come at some point as well.

I got a chance to wear furisode and make tateya musubi (the knot on the back) in real life ^___^ I went to see a Noh play and thought it would be acceptable to wear a formal kimono.

I've also used this musubi on my skins: Momo kimono and Yukinoshita kimono

Furisode are very enchanting ^_^ My whole kimono hobby started with a documentary on maiko (geisha student) and their outfits are the most beautiful <3 <3 I just had to buy myself a furisode when I found an online shop ^^;;;

A world I played on got corrupted in the spring and I've had a long pause in making skins since then because I simply wasn't playing and didn't need outfits ^^; But now I got suddenly very motivated to make a summer asa kimono ^__^ ...even if summer in Finland currently means +12°C
