Yukata

A yukata (浴衣) is a Japanese garment, a casual summer kimono usually made of cotton. People wearing yukata are a common sight in Japan at fireworks displays, bon-odori festivals, and other summer events. And like other forms of traditional Japanese clothing yukata are made with straight seams and wide sleeves. Unlike formal kimono, which are made of silk, yukata are typically made of cotton or synthetic fabrics, and are unlined.

Japanese summer dress, Yukata, always look light and fun. I saw these girls and women wearing Yukata during the Ennichisai Festival in Little Tokyo area, South Jakarta.
