If you're choosing an obijime...
Hello, this is Yukiwa❄.
This is sudden, but!
What criteria do you use when choosing an obijime?
Perhaps the first thing that catches your eye is the color.
Because this is the outfit.
The dress code is a group of "X color", and a kimono and obi would take up too much space, so I think I'll try wearing accessories instead.
Like lipstick in makeup, an obijime can change the overall impression with just a small area.
I think color is definitely a top priority.
Now, next.
What kind of obijime is used so often?
What color or design do you like?
Personally, though...
Color is important, but more importantly, it's important that it's "well-formed and doesn't crumble easily."
I think that's a very important priority.
On the day when you take the time to choose a kimono instead of Western clothes
A day that's a little more special than the others.
On days like that, you want to wear items that you don't have to worry about coming undone.
So... how do you choose an obijime that will tie well?
For example, if you buy it in store.
It's almost impossible to actually tighten it.
In such cases, one way to check is to touch it a little.
Try to hold it lightly.
Or try standing it up a little.
Or try to bring it a little closer.
The obijime that is tightly fastened is,
If you hold it lightly, the shape of your hand will remain firmly in place.
