Traditional Japanese Bride's Attire "Shiromuku"

The traditional Japanese bride's attire "Shiromuku"* The pure white fabric of this kimono symbolizes "being dyed in your color," similar to a wedding dress.

The unique all-white Shiromuku is a dream outfit for brides in Japan ♩ Wearing the Shiromuku elegantly is sure to make your partner fall in love with you all over again, making it a wonderful outfit ♡

It is Recommended to Coordinate "Shiromuku" with Accessories*

Many brides may think that the "Shiromuku," a beloved bridal attire, is just a "pure white kimono," but that's not entirely true. Even though it's the same pure white kimono, the impression of Shiromuku can vary greatly depending on the patterns and materials used.*

That said, it's not easy for non-experts to discern these differences in photos. Many brides find that, despite their careful selections, every outfit looks the same in photographs.

Hence, it's recommended to coordinate Shiromuku with "accessories." There are five essential accessories known as the "Bride's Five-Item Set" for Shiromuku and color-uchikake*

The set consists of a kai-ken (small sword), hakoseko (a small pouch), suehiro (folding fan), maruguke (round bag), and a hikaeobi (obi that wraps around)* Coordinating these five items brings out the bride's charm even more beautifully in the Shiromuku ♩

Look at this image* Even though they are both Shiromuku, don't you think the overall impression changes significantly depending on the accessories used? When wearing Shiromuku, not only does the kimono itself create an impression, but the accessories also greatly affect the overall look◎

So, what accessories do experienced brides usually pair with the Shiromuku? Let’s take a look!♡
