While I was taking cosplay photos, Josh
was checking out the Tea Ceremony and Kimono demonstration. After a few

The particular style of bow being tied on
the young lady's obi above is the Fukura suzume (sparrow style). According

For women, the sash is worn around the
waist. For men, it is worn against the hips. |
