Kimono


KIMONO, originally uploaded by g2slp.

This photo is stunning, the hair and flower are gorgeous! So inspiring, especially for my work!

I wanted to point out the kimono, and how the fabrics are such a contrast. On one hand there are the flowers, with the black background, quite minimalist. Then there's the busy yet beautiful gold contrast of the Obi. This usually means she is a Maiko, and apprentice Geisha, the red "under kimono" or nagajuban, also tells us she is an apprentice.

Jubei Tshirt


Stunning tshirt design by 180ronin called Jubei, straight from the Japanfluence Group on Red Bubble.

I really love the simple vector artwork to really create something quite powerful! Adore the samurai!
