Here are some more information for Kimono Red:
An adult geisha costume is something different, and is a perfect outfit for Halloween. As a geisha girl you will stand out from all the many spooks and witches that are seen every year at this season. A geisha costume is very elegant and striking, and will stand out from the other fancy dress outfits at any event.
The geisha is a very old Japanese tradition which most people know from movies. This is an excellent Halloween costume which will be much different from most others you see around every year. Something which is different in the form of an oriental costume, such as a geisha outfit, is a most refreshing change at a fancy dress event.
The Geisha girl is a traditional Japanese entertainer who works for many years, as an apprentice, to learn her skilled work as a good conversationalist. She will often conduct a tea ceremony which is a Japanese tradition.
The Geisha dresses in a Kimono, which has a big bow at the back of the sash or obi, around the waist. Geishas wear white facial make up with bright red lips, and the hair is worn pulled back in a large bun. All this attire is very standard according to old traditions. The geisha girl is skilled in playing musical instruments for her male customer, and may also recite poetry.
For Halloween celebrations you will want a costume kimono rather than a costly original. This can be obtained at quite a reasonable cost, and wigs are also available, if your natural hair is not fitting for the role. Kimono costumes can be obtained in traditional or modern styles.
An adult geisha costume would be a great choice this Halloween, if you want to be different from run of the mill costumes. A male who will accompany his geisha at Halloween should wear a samurai costume which is also available online. Make it a different Halloween this year with geisha and samurai costumes.
When you dress as a geisha at Halloween you will be wearing the most striking outfit at your party.

Wedding Dress: Complimenting the Wedding Mood
What is so special about a wedding! Is this the decoration covering whole the venue! Is it the bride or the groom? Or the dresses and jewelleries they wear? Probably and mostly the specialty is the fact that wedding is once in a life time occasion. And most other things related to it like the decoration, dress, wedding jewellery only compliment in this process. Because wedding is an occasion that comes only and mostly once in a lifetime so other complimentary things like the wedding gown, wedding jewellery, the bouquet, the bridal veil, the bridesmaid and her dress and jewellery become very important in this occasion.
Though the main important factor in a wedding is the couple about to get married, yet there are important and very important things like the wedding dress and the wedding jewellery. Traditionally brides all over the world, irrespective of cast, religion, tribes and society, prefer to be most beautifully dressed and a bride is the centre of attention in a wedding ceremony. Depending on the religion, society, geographical difference, culture a wedding gown and wedding jewellery can vary accordingly. There is always a good piece of difference between the western wedding dresses and eastern wedding dresses as well as wedding jewelleries. Western wedding dresses are traditionally white whereas the eastern counterparts are mostly red. The white is the colour of mourning for the eastern countries and using white in a wedding dress is not even dreamt in these nations. Even in France till the marriage of Mary Queen of Scots with Francois II, white was considered as inauspicious. It was the official colour of mourning. But with the wedding dresses worn by Mary Queen of Scots and Queen Victoria in colour white the use of white in wedding dresses came into being in France. In western countries dark colours are not preferred for wedding dress. Colours like red and black are mostly avoided in wedding dresses. Black is the colour for mourning and red is something associated with prostitution.
Most of the wedding dresses in China, India and Vietnam are red in colour, the traditional color of good luck and auspiciousness in Asia. Nowadays, many women prefer not to wear the red and choose other colors. In modern Chinese weddings, the bride usually wears the white Western dress and then changes from a white gown to a red gown later in the day. Gold coloured gowns are also popular among Chinese brides. In India the traditional the traditional wedding dress is a sari and lehenga choli accompanied by handmade wedding jewellery in gold. In Vietnam, the traditional wedding dress is Ao Dai and Vietnamese brides prefer lesser amount of wedding jewellery. In Japan, brides use to wear three four traditional wedding dresses throughout the ceremony named Kimono in white and other colours. In Indonesia, Javanese people wear Kebaya as their wedding dress.
In America the indigenous peoples like Hopi, Pueblo, Delawares, Klamath, Modoc, and Yurok etc. have different traditions in wearing a wedding dress. Some of them use natural materials whereas others use animal skins as a tradition.
Wherever you go, whatever you prefer, you would always find wedding dresses and accompanying wedding jewellery at its vast differences across the world. But main theme attached to a wedding dress is that the Bride is the centre of attention irrespective of any difference available worldwide.

I saw a woman in a Red Kimono what does it mean?
Last month, I was in Japan and I got a tour in this old mansion. It looked creepy and I didn't want to go... but I did. Anyway, during the tour I saw a woman across a hallway wearing a red kimono. I asked the tour guide about it but he said he didn't see anything.
Does anybody know what this means? I was in the Himuro Mansion or whatever they called it.
-Thanks
Video Games????
According to urban legend, lying just beyond the city of Tokyo is one of the most haunted locations in all of Japan. The exact location of the Himuro Mansion (or Himikyru Mansion as it is sometimes known) is widely unknown but the legend puts the mansion in a rocky region just beyond the city limits of Tokyo.
A Purported Image of the Himuro Mansion
The mansion is said to have been home to one of the most gruesome murders in modern Japanese history. Local lore has it that for generations, the Himuro family had participated in a strange, twisted Shinto ritual known as “The Strangling Ritual” in order to seal off bad karma from within the Earth, every half century or so.
The most popular version of the tale states that bad karma would emerge each December (other versions simply say “toward the end of the year”) from a portal on the Mansions grounds. In order to prevent this, a maiden was chosen at birth by the master of the household and isolated from the outside world in order to prevent her from developing any ties to the outside world, which would in turn, jeopardize the effect of the ritual.
On the day of the Strangling Ritual, the maiden was bound by ropes on her ankles, wrists, and neck. The ropes were attached to teams of oxen or horses to rip her limbs from her body, quartering her. The ropes used to bind her appendages would then be soaked in her blood and laid over the gateway of the portal. They believed that this would seal off the portal for another half century until the ritual had to be repeated.
During the last recorded Strangling Ritual it is said that the maiden had fallen in love with a man who tried to save her from the ritual. This “tie” to Earth tainted her blood and spirit and ruined the ritual altogether. Upon learning of the maidens love, the master took up his sword and brutally murdered all of his family members, before finally, in fear of what would soon happen, fell upon his own blade.
This is the basis of the “haunting” of the Himuro Mansion. Local legend has it that these souls of the murdered family wander the mansion attempting to repeat the failed ritual using whomever enters the abandoned building. Blood splashes on the walls are reportedly seen, as if they were flicked from the blade of a sword that had recently sliced through flesh. Many have reported seeing spirits and apparitions dressed completely in white, rinsing cloths and preparing the grounds for the ritual.

Interest in the Himuro Mansion has peaked due to it’s inclusion into the back story of the popular game, Fatal Frame.
Now, the question is, did any of this really happen? Probably not. The core allure of this legend is also it’s silver bullet. If such a grisly murder did occur (sources put this between 30 and 80 years ago) in such recent times, where is the record?
It is highly unlikely that no police station or newspaper have records of this mass murder taking place just outside of Tokyo.
Regarding the mystery of the location, some believers have offered the notion that the Himuro family has once again taken ownership of the mansion and is currently living there.. but that conflicts with the legend in that all family members were supposedly murdered AND the “firsthand accounts” of events witnessed on the property by locals and researchers.
Another peculiarity of note is that Tecmo advertised the game in North America with the tagline: “Based on a true story,” but without on the original Japanese release. Because of this, some have theorized that the entire legend was fabricated by the game developers.
