And if you don't already know, the traditional Japanese garment that comes in a myriad of colours and patterns is essentially a summer kimono women and girls wear.<\/p> <p>While they were\u00a0originally worn after a bath or to bed, they have since become a part of summer fashion whre it's also worn to fireworks displays or summer festivals.<\/p> <p>Well, now you don't have to travel to the Far East just to get a hit out of\u00a0donning the piece because <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/fashion\/latest-news\/new-collections\/uniqlo-street-tales-celebrate-sg50-with-55-exclusive-t-shirt-designs-109291.html\">Japanese retailer, Uniqlo<\/a> has brought them right to our shores with a special collection.

Hence from his side of the collection, you'll notice graceful roses, polka dots, chameleon plant flowers, among other patterns. Whereas Junichi Nakahara was a fashion designer and illustrator whose designs include traditional\u00a0Japanese patterns such as plum blossoms and dahlias.<\/p> <p>Retaining its authentic weave, the yukatas in this collection are also made with 100% cotton in order\u00a0to deliver\u00a0the exact feel and comfort of traditional yukatas. You don't want to be battling the heat while wearing them after all.<\/p> <p>So seeing that the Japanese summer festival,\u00a0<em>natsu matsuri, <\/em>which is typically celebrated at the\u00a0The Japanese School is a month away -\u00a0on 22 August - perhaps this will give you all the more reason to get your very own yukata and head down to soak up the festivities in true Japanese fashion!
