3 Recommended Yukata Coordinations for Different Scenes
Night View Photogenic Coordination
For the large fireworks that illuminate the night sky over Yodogawa and the Expo, a yukata with a vibrant pattern paired with a soft heko obi is an excellent match. Your charming kimono appearance will be perfectly photogenic each time it's illuminated by the light.
This elegant style exudes a sense of mature grace as it sways in the night breeze.
Double Enjoyment Coordination: City Stroll x Fireworks
For those who want to enjoy a stroll through Minami before the Naniwa Yodogawa Fireworks Festival, we recommend a casual, muted-color yukata paired with a straw bag. This ensures ease of walking while maintaining an uncompromisingly stylish look for photos. Your journey to the viewing spot will also be glamorous.
Beach Festival Style Coordination
The Senshu Hikari to Oto no Yume Hanabi takes place on an open, airy beach. Pairing a light blue or white yukata with blue patterns with a lace obi or accessories creates a cool and festival-like impression. With a light coordination that shines in the sea breeze, you can relax until the fireworks begin.
