Ip For Styl es
From America
(By Tne Associated Press)
By James A. .Mills
TOKYO, Sep!. — Thousands of
Japanese girls and women have
discarded their time-honored ki
mono, obi (sash) and geta (wood
en sandals) for American-style
clothes. Foreign fashion experts
here sav that in another decade
Japan probably will be complete
ly western in dress.
Almost ail of the school girls
and boys now wear American
clothes, which are considered not
only smarter, but more practical
and hygienic.
Cheaper Wedding Gowns
But it is perhaps in wedding at
tire that the greatest change has
come. Most smart Japanese wo
men prefer American or European
wedding gowns, not so much for
the style as for the economy. In
Japan a native wedding kimono
costs from $100 to $300, while a
modish western wedding gown
may be made for one-third that
price.
And when Japanese youths mar
ry, they discard their native ki
mono dress, which some believe
makes them look “plebian". in
favor of the conventional western
“morning'' garb. Formerly most
men in Japan regarded a foreign
style suit as a luxury, but now'
it is worn for business and on all
formal occasions.
Ten years ago Japanese girls
who wore foreign-style appare
w'ere regarded as flappers, or ev
en as immoral, today many Jap
anese parents, who usually are or
thodox and nationalistic favor
western garments for their dau- j
ghters.
Figures Improving
With the gradual discontinuan- j
ce among mothers of the old prac
tice of carrying their babies on
their back—'Which often gave the
children "pigeon-toes” or “bandy
legs”—the figures of Japanese
girls and boys have greatly im
proved, so they wear western
clothes more gracefully. But Jap
anese women. Americans here
think, still look far better in their
traditional kimono and obi be
cause of their difference in stat
ure and build.
