Why did that woman have to be wearing a kimono?

Japanese people have been wearing kimonos for hundreds of years.

You look wonderful, but that isn't the way to wear a kimono.

If the weather is good, people often dress up or wear kimono.

Therefore most Japanese haven't needed to wear official kimonos recently.

During the performance, she was lifted into the air wearing a kimono that covered most of the stage.

Women followed in the 20th century and now wear kimonos only at family or official celebrations.

One man wore a black kimono; he may have been a member, or just visiting from a small town in Japan.

I never understand why women bother wearing kimono in the first place.

Instead of the black habit, she is shown wearing a kimono while holding a cross in her hands.
