Yuko now selling off the kimono piece by piece as some ridiculously overprized fashion accessory is just the last straw.
I wish she would at least sell whole kimono. I could maybe get one of my favorites...

ICYMI!
Also, if you'd like to actively support me please follow this link:
As tumblr is getting more and more quiet...
How many of you are still there?
This blog meant a lot to me but with all the things that happened I feel more and more distanced from what I loved. I still enjoy seeing all the Maiko of Kamishichiken evolve but I just can't find the energy to follow all of them. After covid even less. So much changed.
And so did I. But I learned a lot that helps me to do the things I always loved. It helps me evolving and changing my life.
For now I try to put all my energy in my small business, in sewing and creating. Through this blog I also learned a lot about kimono. I will also use that knowledge. I have many plans and ideas and I would be grateful to show that to you some day, if you are interested.
If you want to support me and learn more about what I'm doing, please follow my instagram.
Thank you all for following this blog. It really means lots to me. But I don't think a lot is going to happen here anymore.

No new photos, sadly.
But apparently former Maiko Umesana has now debuted as Maiko under a new okiya. Her name is now Fujichiyo.
Would you be interested in any pictures and of her even though she's not affiliated with Umeno anymore?

As these pictures were found online there’s a high chance those obi have been sold by Umeno okiya.

Thank you very much for your lovely words.
It means a lot to me, that people actually see a meaning in my database. It’s still not complete, but I’m going on working on it. I will keep this account updated for sure.
It just doesn’t feel the way before, which makes it very hard to keep my motivation up. But I will try my best.
Something personal
I really miss Umechie.
She was the reason I got interested in the world of Maiko and Geiko. And since she’s gone, it’s hard for me to keep up…
