日本文化紹介と着物ショー
|
ごめんなさい ! Long time for me no post nor practice my Kitsuke ( shame,shame,shame). Last week end I decides to sweep away the dust from my tatoshi and dress up in kimono for the opening of the new Japanese association of my town ( Lyon NinhonJinKai) . Lyon NinhonJinKai : http://lyon-japon.net/ At the opening ceremony I had an unexpected encounter with Madame Kakue Kanda who is a Kitsuke teacher and run her own school the Sensui Kimono Institut in Chiba , I was kind of nervous to be introduce to her because I had only 20 minutes to put my kimono before the cocktail and I didn’t choose a really appropriate kimono for this start fall . Hopefully it seems I pass the examination, the ladies were very interested by my Portuguese galleon obi and we had an interesting conversation about it in a strange mix of English, Japanese and sign language. Madame Kakue Kanda and other kind ladies of her institute also invites me to the kimono demonstration which held the next day. I decide to go in coral iromuji + my bat nagoya obi ( I figure after the show that i tied my front panel o-taiko upside/down ... but maybe for "bats" its is ok :p ). Those demonstration present a large panel of kimono : - Kitsuke for Shichi Go San, graduation and causal event. - Geisha Kitsuke - Kitsuke for each season + explanation - Wonderful shibori aizome kimono show ( unfortunately I didn’t catch the name of the dye master ) Plus martial art, shodo and Japanese puppetry demonstration !! I hope we will have more such high quality event in my town now we have not 1 but 2 (!!) Japanese cultural centre .
