cultural, social and historical significance. A beautiful book with
many illustrations throughout, the reader is taken on a journey
that is both educational and thoroughly enjoyable.

as the most beautiful native dress in the world. In its fabric is
expressed the Japanese aesthetic sensibility to season and color,
in its folds is layered the soul of Japan.”
