30 kilogrammes ? That's the weight of the armor worn by medieval European knights. Oiran are officially as strong as knights.

Harumi looks SO TALL, and the wig and white makeup really make her look larger than life in an amazing way. That the attire literally put the oiran above the crowd for her walk must have really been something to see back then. Like Tomoko said, it must have made the oiran look like idols. Although, now I have to wonder if oiran didn't have amazing strength to carry all that weight. Wearing 30 kilos WHILE playing an instrument? No wonder the training was so intense! Edited for typo.

What an amazing transformation. Harumi's grace shines through to make it even more lovely. So Beautiful! I thought Tomoko looked beautiful in her kimono also, I really loved her obi.

The explanation of wearing white makeup in candlelight was fascinating, but now I really want to see Harumi's made-up face in actual candlelight! Made me realize I've never seen the white makeup as it's meant to be seen!

I think I'm seeing a possible reason why big/tall shoes are popular in modern times, especially for women to wear. I'd love to learn more about why the Taka-Geta became the shoe of choice.

The staff were doing an incredible job, I was so amazed the entire time. Harumi looked beautiful as an Oiran! I hope she enjoyed herself a lot.

Wow no wonder Oiran were considered stylish influencers back in the day, those kimono were gorgeous! Harumi looked beautiful and it seems like she was already taking the persona of an oiran at the end 😊Aww are those bunnies on Tomokos kimono?!! Omg I love it 🐰❤️

2 questions for you Shogo; 1. How normal is it to wear a kimono in Japan these days? 2. would you be willing to do a brief history of Japan. About the eras, a few things that happened during that time etc Thank you for the video!!

I was always told that the reason why the obi was in the front for Oiran and Yujio is that they took it off several times a night to service clients. I never knew that married women wore their obi tied in the front as well.

What an amazing experience, gorgeous Kimono Harumi picked out and she looks magnificent, it was adorable how your daughter was a little shy when she saw her mama all dressed up 👘🤗Thank you for this wonderful experience 🙏🏽

Nagi didn't recognize her mommy.. 😅 Nice video Shogo.. Love the way you tell the history about Kimono at past time.. Btw, Harumi look very beautiful wearing that Kimono..

Way back in the 80's, an art student friend of mine took me to the Art Mart, a building in downtown L.A. filled with shops where designers and interior decorators had stores meant for industry people, but on certain days the public could come in and buy. There was one store that had recently acquired the entire inventory of a wedding kimono rental outfit in Japan. They were selling the kimonos for $500 each. FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS. These were pieces that had rented for $300-$400 A DAY. I was frustrated and furious that I did not have the money to buy one, and it still makes me crazy that I couldn't. Those things were so magnificent, they were being sold as art pieces to hang on the wall. ARGH $500 ARGH HEADDESK.

The staff were so excited and happy to dress up the lady We all need that kind of encouragement in our lives ☺️

Comparing the Oiran Kimono with the Regular Kimono is really amazing and truly a little bit similar, but it's also very different. Harumi looked truly beautiful wearing the Oiran Kimono and the transformation was truly wonderful! Thank you so much for a wonderful video!

Fantastic! Harumi looks lovely in that kimono. Back in the 1950s my mother took a trip to Japan and there was a photo studio doing the same thing, my mother looked cute too in the big wig and a simpler kimono set.

The patience needed for the dressing to happen is unbelievable. These women have my greatest respect. Have actually witnessed similar dressing in Kyoto in 1972 when invited to a geisha house. It amazed me then and still does. These women and girls have my admiration 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏

Harumi is so strong being able to wear all that. You look so pretty too. I totally understood when Tomoko said “I don’t want to stand here”🤣

Guys, how interesting, and people have little understanding how much dedication is involved in the smallest details! Thank you so much for explaining and sharing your culture with everyone. I find it surpassingly beautiful.

Your wife looked magnificent in kimono. So regal! And the outer coat she chose was exquisite. The blue set off the embroidery colors so well. What a masterpie they made together!

She is wearing an entire comforter set! And I love it! 🤩

A beautiful model in a beautiful kimono! You are a very lucky man Shogo!

That kimono is absolutely spectacular! I'm so jealous! This is something I've always wanted too wear, a kimono of the Edo period! Harumi you are so lovely! BTW- are you familiar with Miss Hokusai? It is my favorite anime.

wow! Harumi looks so gorgeous in that outfit. like a completely different person too. amazing

After comparing the before and after shots, I must say that the way they painted on the mouth was the most impressive thing to me. You can really see the massive transformation from having no mouth, to having a mouth. Amazing! 👏👏👏

Harumi looked so beautiful both in and out of the outfit today! Incredible layers and weight too!

What amazing colors of fabrics and embroidery. These robes are gorgeous!

My neck and shoulders hurt seeing her in so much heavy dressing 😅 Props to Harumi!

Harumi looks so beautiful! so breath-taking in that kimono. im sad to hear women were risking frostbite in winter for beauty standard tho (which ik still happens even today with anorexia and bbl etc. people risking their health just for beauty) 😭 never knew that "saucy victorian ankle" thing was also a thing in japan

Just watched this a few minutes ago. We are enjoying your series so very much. You, Harumi, your daughters and your associates are like family to us now and your visits are absolutely precious

Harumi is incredibily cute! I think she should think about modelling these traditional outfits, it suits her so smoothly... Tomoko is beautiful and super cute as well, she should try them too!

the thumbnails are always wonderful!🤩

Wow yet another beautiful transformation. Harumi looks amazing. Love learning about the history and culture of Japan. Thank you guys for bringing us this beautiful content ♡

So well done. Huromi looked so transformed. I would love to see more kimonos up close.

What an amazing experience!! Harumi embodied an aristocrat from back in the ancient times😍😍 I am going to so my sue diligence and reserve a spot for my visit!! Thank you so much for taking us on this Hidden Gem🎉

Breathtakingly beautiful! It’s art and fashion and tradition combined into one

Thanks for showing this transformation! What gorgeous fabrics.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience ,she looked just gorgeous!

What a beautiful outfit! Everyone at the studio was so skilled. Looked like you had fun!

Hello Shogo and Harumi. Nagi is getting so big, a beautiful daughter. Thank you for sharing your experience in getting your photos done at that fine establishment. To bad we couldn't see them apply the makeup but seeing all that is involved with putting the outfit on and the different layers of cloth and the shoes. And the outfit weighs 40 kilos when finished, Japanese women must be strong indeed. This has given me a better insight to the past when these outfits were worn by high ranked ladies of the time. Thanks again and I hope your family stays well and safe.

Both Kimono look beautiful. It is amazing how much time and effort it takes to get this beautiful outfit.

A beautiful and very interesting look in to the tradition and wearing of the kimono. The style, history and WEIGHT is phenomenal, 30kgs, that is Military Grade!!!! So many styles, the footwear, unbelievable. Thank You very much for this video.

I knew you went to Jidaiya! I also did a photo experience with them too. So much fun.

Oml Harumi looks spectacular with that uchikake, it looks like real water is flowing through her back! Is like magical.✨ She is beautiful 🌸

Very cool video! Great transformation. Especially liked learning more about the process of getting ready.

the whole outfit was so gorgeous and eye candy to look at. truely an artwork

this is very nice. must've been a rare opportunity. congrats shogo!

She looks so pretty! As much as I don't like what Oiran and Yujio had to go through I do like what they wear. Who made the kimono got skills!

Harumi is so beautiful.Shes like a professional and seems so natural

Harumi looks so graceful, dainty, and luxurious. The whole outfit looks beautiful on her.

I’m going to Kyoto in August,I’m 66 years old but I’m still going to do it! Fabulous show!

Harumi looks SO beautiful! I find it amazing that there's such a variety of Kimonos available for photo shooting!

OMG Harumi looks absolutely BEAUTIFUL! She picked such a gorgeous kimono🤯 The detail is so exquisite🤩 My favorite has to be the river running across the piece. Go Harumi❣️🎉

The transformation is remarkable! So beautiful!

Harumi looks amazing!😍 I'd love to see this kind of services in more places, it would be so beautiful one day to see tourists trying out the traditional clothing of my region and really immerse in the culture!

Absolutely wonderful, to say the least. Congrats on the photo shooting. Everything was just awesome. Greetings from Brazil.

Harumi looked absolutely beautiful in the Oiran outfit. Lovely!!

So incredible. Those poses and the layers of clothes. I love how your wife's face changed with each layer and her smirk in the pictures, I could see an attitude change. Just incredible.

Incredibly beautiful, you're so lucky to get to do this! ❤❤❤

When Shogo says "Look at Harumi with white makeup!", he sounds so proud of his wife! Toooo cute! 🥺

These photos are something to treasure! What a beautiful design!

i've mentioned it before (probably) but I really like the new format! the voice over the this video in particular is really nice! ALso, long time no see harumi!

Thank you Shogo and team!! What a great experience for Harumi!!

Wow!!!! That kimono is incredible. What a special experience this studio provides!

Your subjects are SO interesting! Subscribed...

Wow! It's amazing how much goes into getting a woman dressed like that! Makes you wonder if the actual Oiran had someone come with them to help them get dressed again afterwards. And thank you for explaining the makeup! I didn't know that's why they did white face with the red highlights. And the clothing is all so beautiful!! I would love to try something like that, but you probably have to be under a certain weight to be able to fit in the clothing.

Harumi is so gorgeous! What beautiful pictures, such a treasure to keep for your children and future grandchildren. Your channel is wonderful, thank you for your amazing videos!

Wow such a cool tradition and amazing kimono!

totally loved this video!!! Harumi was gorgeous

What a beautiful choice for a kimono!!! Just beautiful!!! ♥️♥️♥️

When I come to Japan I need you as a tour guide and a friend

WOWWWWWWWWWW!! So beautiful. If I ever get to Kyoto, I’m so going to do this!!

Wonderful and informative as always!

I love learning above the culture surrounding these entertainers, especially their appearance and the symbolism behind it.

So much to learn about Japan. Thank you for being the Guide.

So beautiful! She has such a great personality that showed through the makeup!

So beautiful! I love see such an intimate part of the Japanese culture! Truly breathtaking 🫶🏽

The ladies both look amazing! I loved Tomoko's outfit and the colours of Harumi's. The quilted obi looked so heavy...

Harumi looks absolutely breathtaking! And the staffers where very professional and quick. I’m sure you edited the video down, but they seemed so efficient! The staff was very skilled, and very well informed, I’m glad you asked them questions for us. Random question, did the makeup have a strong scent? It seems like it would smell like paint, because it is so thick

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful experience and history with us. It would be hard not to feel like the most beautiful woman in the world in this makeup and ensemble. I would love to see Shogo do a photo shoot in historical dress as well so we can learn about the different men's clothing traditions.

Very cool absolutely beautiful! Very important that this is passed down from generation to generation ❤️👍👍

Harumi looks absolutely stunning! You two should do an anniversary shoot together! OMG, so cute!! 😍

Harumi looks absolutely gorgeous 😍❤! That kimono and hair is amazing! Tomoko looks gorgeous too and Nagi is so big and adorable! I can imagine Hinata is very big and cute too. Again, love your videos. Blessings beautiful family (the 4 of you and kids) from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷🙏🏻❤

These videos are fantastic! They were always great but your editing and camera work have really improved! The music and how everything was cut make your videos very professional and polished!❤️

HARUMI LOOKED SO BEAUTIFUL AS OIRAN! 🥰…I’m so jealous

So beautiful ! Thanks for sharing 😊Love from France ❤

So much history and culture... not to mention how beautiful the whole outfit is This is incredible

Assuming this is correct, as far as culture and meaning of their garb and colors, it is the most fact filled vid of their dress I've ever seen. Well done!!

hey Shogo! Your videos are refreshing to watch. It's rare to see videos of japan that aren't yelling and obnoxious thumbnails

I’ve always wanted to do a geisha styled look but i want to do it as authentically as I can which is a lot of money. I love kimonos and the history… I hope one day I can achieve a similar transformation.

Even though people with her interest is fading, my hope is the tradition continues towards the next generation. It is something important and what make us having an identity. Oiran..... never knew there is so much rank.

This is really cool! The transformation is great and the kimono is beautiful.

Harumi has the cutest smile I've ever seen... Also really a graceful person

Just gorgeous! I would have loved this when I was a little girl living in Japan.

What a fascinating episode,thank you!!!!!

I follow this studio on Instagram and they are amazing! Would really love to get one of this amazing transformations

My goodness so beautiful. I love traditional clothing

It is lovely to see how your family interacts. So sweet.

So beautiful! The makeup and kimono are awesome ❤

Harumi is soo beautiful, with and without makeup! What a pretty couple you are! And your baby is so adorable! 😍 Hugs from Germany ♥️
