1. What is Uchikake?

Uchikake is one of the formal wedding attire worn by the bride, and is so named because it is worn like an uchikake over a kosode.

When people hear the word "uchikake," many may think of a colored uchikake, but a plain white uchikake is also a type of uchikake and is also called a white uchikake.

Each uchikake has a wonderful meaning that is uniquely Japanese, and is worn as wedding attire.

2. Experience wearing a traditional kimono at Genji-koh

There are not many opportunities to wear an uchikake, but Genji-koh currently has four types of uchikake available so that you can wear one casually. In particular, guests from overseas who stay at Genji-koh have the chance to wear an uchikake.

The customer in the photo is from Taiwan, and came because he wanted to wear this uchikake. (He agreed to the publication of the photo.)

Well, at Genji-koh, this Uchikake experience is free!

If you were to actually purchase this uchikake, it would cost six to seven figures in Japanese yen (lol).

When you visit Genji-koh, be sure to try on a kimono and feel like a princess!
