Kimono is a miracle cure for youth!
Hello, this is musubi-kyoto. Separena kimonos are gentle on the elderly who have difficulty putting them on by themselves.
My 84-year-old mother is from a generation that normally wears kimonos, and when she was younger she would wear them in winter even on non-special occasions. However, now that she's getting older, even when she dresses herself for New Year's, the kimono and obi end up all messed up and she can't wear them. I made a separate kimono and a pre-made obi for her, so when I asked her if she wanted to try them on, she seemed happy to do so.
Amazingly, after wearing it, my curved waist, back, and spine become perfectly straight. It's amazing to think that people in the past had the basic rule of correcting their posture when wearing a kimono. It felt like I was several decades younger in an instant!
I would be happy if elderly people who want to wear kimonos like my mother did in the past could wear kimonos and feel rejuvenated in mind and body. In such cases, please choose a kimono in a bright color.
How about going out wearing a kimono this New Year? (^^)
