todayintokyo:@tanuki-kimono, remember my tongue-in-cheek comment about penguins on kimono? I went Googling, not really expecting anything, but … wow! So. Many. Results. I really should’ve known better. Japan loves penguins, after all: it has more penguins in captivity than any other nation. Photo sources: top row, bottom row.I also found a video of penguins wearing kimono at Iruka Land. I think we can safely categorize this as “only in Japan”. @todayintokyo Yes I remember the bottom obi! I have rebloged it some times ago (I love kimono Tsuru they always have nice casual kimono stuff :D). It seems penguins have become a popular motif for summer wear (a bit like yukiwa, penguin must give a cooling effect :P)My favourite so far is this one (polar bear selling ice creams to small penguins ^^)I didn’t know about Japan+penguins ôO so much love! Must be the cute effect ;) -- source link
