Question regarding Kimono wear
I was wondering if it is ok to wear flip flops or some other type of sandals if someone can't get a pair of getas?

Either way, I think flipflops with a proper kimono would look strange and sloppy. You might get away with it with a yukata, but it would still be odd. |
there is no regulations. ;)
I think that I depend on the kind of the kimono and the place to which it goes. |
Thanks. I plan on making a kimono/yukata Just for fun to wear around the house, or if i'm able to go to any anime cons...and I saw they do sell geta's online in some stores, but my parents won't let me shop online plus I don't have a credit/debit card to do so...and no, I am not Japanese, nor do I live in Japan

mm, if you can't get Geta I suggest you make a yukata instead. A kimono has many layers and is going to be a big project if you want to make it anyway, and you need tabi, obi etc. I've seen a lot of people in flip-flops + yukata at fairs here in Japan, you wouldn't look weird. Especially if you're not going to wear it in Japan. Have you researched how to make yukata? :3
btw once you make it and wear it, make sure the back collar touches your neck, basic rule of kimono/yukata. If you don't it's a dude/martial arts thing. o.o; (I learned the hard way.) |
