They would like to show the video about Kimono dressing demonstration by Sueko Oshimoto next the exihibition.   QOLA magazine which is to support the Japanese people all over the world from abroad published the article of Sueko Oshimoto as a costume designer and a kimono stylist on the Feburary issue of the New Year special.
This is meaningful time, as we celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another.
We must look back this year "2013", believing that there is the bright future. In the new year, although our challenges are great, each of us has the courage, wisdom, and decision which conquer difficulty. Let's believe each of us and continue a challenge together. I want to wish you a happy and healthy New Year. Yours sincerely. Sueko Oshimoto. The head of flower arrangement at Sogetsu school, Mrs. Akane Teshigahara, held a seminar for the first time in Los Angeles. Sueko did the kimono dressing, hair, and a makeup for a welcome dinner party and live performance.  She gave a speech at the welcome dinner.  Surprisingly, there were lots of non Japanese members who came to this seminar from the all over the world.  It was a great performance of flower arrangement live on the stage. The quick change of clothes from the Kimono was fun too.
I was able to see many beautiful flower arrangements and have a new appreciation for the art of flower arrangement. The Asian American Expo 2013 was held last weekend in Pomona, Calif. We had a booth where anyone could experience and the authentic Kimono dressing. We offered to dress people in Kimono and take photos and sell Kimono and Obis. It was a huge success!
We sold lots of Kimono and Obis. They were almost sold out! Click here for the Video. I was so happy to know that non-Japanese people also like Kimono. There was a customer that came from Taiwan, she bought four kinds of Kimonos. There was a girl that wanted to show her grandma in Japan the Kimono picture for the first time. Everyone had different thoughts about wearing kimono. We can also dress you for Sechigosan and Seijinshiki. We welcome offers for events like this. Please contact us.
 We will continue to spread Kimono culture all over the world!
We offer Kimono dressing classes, Yamonoryukisou in California. Every year we hold professional kimono classes, an Okuden course for six months followed by an examination to be a Kimono stylist that can qualify around the world. This license is recognised by the Association of international beauty and Health Minister. We started Okuden course last week.  We start from reviewing things learned in Beginner classes, Shoden Course and Chuden course. Students who took Shoden course and Chuden course can dress themselves in Komon, Furisode and Kurotomesode. And they can also do Obi in Ichijyudaiko and Nijyudaiko( Single Taiko and Double Taiko).  Later in class you will learn the history of Kimono and culture of Kimono. This should be an interesting category for people who like Kimono. They are studying hard to be Kimono stylists this year!  Six months from now they are going to learn how to dress kimono for costumers.  So far there are thirty three Kimono stylists from Yamanoryukisou in the U.S. This year will be the sixth examination. We are expecting all the stylists to spread Kimono and Japanese culture to American community!
