'Can Foreigners Wear Kimono in Japan?'

'Japan has many \"kimono taiken\" meaning \"kimono experience\" places that welcome tourists from abroad and Japan to try on traditional and sometimes historical dresses. I went to several of those places in Shimonoseki and Mojiko. We will try on 3 Japanese dresses and talk a little about them.   Some of you might be worried if foreigners can wear a kimono or if it is cultural appropriation. In fact, in my 7 years in Japan, I have yet to find a single person who have said anything negative about gaijin / foreigners wearing kimono. It\'s about cultural appreciation not appropriation, and the Japanese staff will make sure you wear it right. Most importantly, however, is that you get them professionally fitted and treat the garments with respect. Wearing it the RIGHT way is very important. When wearing kimono, please be reminded that a simple bathrobe in silk does not classify as kimono. Kimono literally mean \"thing to wear\" and are Japanese traditional clothes and each of them holds a piece of history and their own stories. Without further ado, please have a look for my kimono experiences in Shimonoseki and Moji, Japan and talk a little about it.  ☆ OTHER VIDEOS ABOUT SHIMONOSEKI/KITAKYUSHU ☆ Retro Train Ride - https://youtu.be/R_qzeKwuL7c Killer Fish To Dish - https://youtu.be/2GPXXCOxxW8 Must Try Yaki Curry - https://youtu.be/0_RaBrbnG2E  ★ TRAVEL DIARIES ★ Part 1 - https://youtu.be/lRjQArssVk4 Part 2 - https://youtu.be/CgYePXnNJYU Part 3 - https://youtu.be/fWpxh2N4fD8  This video was taken as part of a work trip in 2020.
