Pink Shiromuku!

Shiromuku, the kimono worn in traditional japanese wedding ceremony is, by definition, an all-white garment... So, I was most surprised to browse Isyou and find this lovely pink-trail shiromuku! <3



Personally, it's the first time I've seen any splash of color in shiromuku (and yes, I'm sure this is not an uchikake*!). The pink is not an overall too flashy detail, since it's only at the bottom of the sleeves/trail, but for my taste, the tone could be a little softer... but, wow, it's pink on a shiromuku.
How could I not love that?

* Uchikake is the kimono worn at japanese wedding reception, and it's traditionally deep colored (most commonly in red) and heavily brocaded.
