All those lovely layers! They must be extremely thin fabrics. Tale of Genji was part of my high school's World Literature course. The teacher was wise and avoided most European lit in favor of other cultures and countries.
My daughter and now son in law saved up 4 years to go to Japan and get married and spend 2 weeks honeymoon. THEY got thier wedding pictures in traditional Japanese kimonos..Omg so beautiful..
Heian jidai in Japan was influenced by the Tang dynasty, that is why some words they called " Kara 唐 " which means Tang = China Karaginu = cloth from Tang Karakasa = Tang's umbrella and ... they learn Kanji through ancient Chinese poetry such as 李白

Oh that is so lovely. I don't usually go for paler colors, prefering gem tones. But the subtlety of these shades is wonderful.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful story.

Each kimono in that layering is lined I think I counter 10-12 layers. So 20-24 layers of gossamer silk.

I am sorry, but the two voices overlaying each other, was not a good idea!
私もそう思います。インタビューパートは字幕だけで充分だった。
