what is Oiran kimono?
Oiran kimono originated from the Yoshiwara pleasure quarters in Japan’s Edo period and was the attire of “oiran”, top-tier courtesans. It represented the highest aesthetic and craftsmanship of that era. Composed of furisode (a long-sleeved kimono where sleeve length indicates status and features gorgeous patterns), nagajuban (long undergarment), exquisite brocade obi (paired with obiage and obijime), it also includes elaborate hair ornaments and decorative geta (wooden clogs). The overall style is exaggerated and luxurious. Today, as a cultural symbol, it is widely used in films, stage plays, and ACG (anime, comics, games), and there are also improved versions incorporating modern elements.
