Do people actually wear kimono?
Yes! Although western-style clothing has long been worn in Japan, the traditional kimono is still an important part of Japan’s culture. Weddings, graduations, tea ceremony, holidays and festivals are all important events where the kimono or yukata will be seen. Older Japanese women can still be seen wearing kimono and haori as they go about their daily lives. Many women and men of various ages wear yukata in the evening or at the bathhouse.
