What shoes are traditionally worn with kimono? What should you keep in mind when choosing the right size, and how can you style a modern kimono outfit with everyday shoes?
Kimono Club member Mengqi Wang won’t just be giving a talk—you’ll also have the chance to try on different types of kimono footwear for yourself in the tea room! A pair of authentic maiko okobo, high wooden platform sandals, is on its way and will likely be available to try on that day. Please wear clean socks!
After the talk, we’ll gather for a relaxed cup of tea, with the chance to try on kimono or yukata together.
Doors open at around 5:45 p.m., and the talk will begin shortly after 6:00 p.m.
Admission is free; donations are welcome.
