this adorable kimono romper I bought online came in the mail today and I absolutely love it :3💕
It’s not a kimono, please (fashion) educate yourself
it’s a mainstream-ized kimono ^.^ has the elements of a kimono and the elements of casual, mainstream fashion :D which is why I love it! ~ best of both worlds :)
Yes yes, so you told. Don’t ‘:D’ me, this is not a kimono, this does not have a cultural meaning, don’t refer to it as kimono. Thanks.
:D I’m going to call it a kimono if i want to :D free speech baby! also, no person of japanese decent has complained, just white people. lOL. if it has nothing to do with you, chill! you’re getting worked up over nothing. enjoy life and find peace^.^
"if it has nothing to do with you, chill!"
Are you kidding me? I’m not the type of person who’s only worried about myself, I’m not that egocentric. It’s not because some people don’t stand up for themselves that others don’t have to either
Luckily, no Japanese women or men are upset though? If they are logical human beings, they’d think “hey it’s cool our culture is being seen as fashionable and people are getting interested”. That’s literally all it is. There’s no negative connotation behind me wearing this or calling it a kimono, when it is in fact a mainstream-ized kimono. ^.^ No actual Japanese people are offended, just you! It’s just you getting worked up over nothing! I’m not only worried about myself other, I care about the people around me, and have thought through “will this offend actual Japanese people? No, i highly doubt it. I’m not being mean to them or their culture, i’m embracing it and liking how there’s fashionable mainstream-ized versions of their beautiful kimonos” :3 only positive vibes coming from me! Maybe take a look at yourself and make the decision to put your time towards something more productive ♡
"I’m not shitting on your culture! I’m embracing it! I’m white! I can do whatever I want! Free speech! Who cares that I don’t know anything about actual Japanese culture! No Japanese I know is upset, only you! But like that doesn’t matter because I’m entitled to wear whatever the fuck I want! Now stop being offended and let me be edgy!" - Piece of Shit otherwise known as fitness-fits-me
She literally just could of said it was a floral romper, why is she so obsessed with saying it’s a kimono? Like???
To be 100% honest white people claiming that only white people are offended by racism or appropriation is the most asinine argument I have heard on tumblr. Yes white girl, continue to speak for me and all other Japanese people on how it’s so fucking honoring for you to call your weird ass romper a kimono. Tell me more about my culture.
Please un-interest yourself in our fashion. Thank you.
Edit: AND you tagged it as this? #me #fashion #kawaii #asian #japanese this is gross and you are gross
