For @ubetablieveit's Miss World contest. Keiko is wearing a very slightly modernized version of a kimono, since I couldn't resist making the top layer just a little sheer. Likewise, I didn't go for an elaborate, traditional hairstyle, but rather something more simple and practical for today's woman, although still decorated with jewelry and flowers. I hope this is all right.
So happy Miss Japan made the beloved pages. If all three entries are featured on the beloved pages on one of the pages you will be awarded three more crowns. Best to your contestant.
RP: Judge 2 absolutely loves this contestant and has 17 crowns to give and decides I am giving them all to her. She is absolutely stunning. The other judges agree but not on the distribuiton. She thinks they all she be given to her for prettiness but Wardell Judge III says absollutely not some should go for the accuracy of the design. They all agree so she will receive ten for prettiness and seven for accuracy. The audience agrees.
RP for crown distribution for Hit and Miss Contest:
All the judges are deliberating as to how to distribute her crowns she earned. The audience all agree that her eleven crowns should go for beauty!
That's reasonable, as they're worn by young, single women! Thank you for increasing my vocabulary and cultural understanding, by introducing me to the furisode! <3
Hm... I don't think that she looks like a geisha or meiko... Keiko is just a beautiful young woman in a long sleeves Kimono (a Furisode), although it's also worn by a meiko ^^ I really love the modern touch of the kimono!
Wow, everybody, thanks very much!! I definitely didn't want to dress her as a geisha or meiko, but I wasn't sure that putting a modern twist on a traditional kimono would go over well, so I'm thrilled that you like this costume!
