Japan's Princess Kako is making an official visit to Brazil to mark the 130th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Japan and Brazil. On June 13, 2025, Princess Kako attended a ceremony with students and members of the Japanese community at the Nikkei Cultural Centre Association in Rio de Janeiro. Afterwards, Japan's Princess Kako visited the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden.
Délicieuse Kako dans le dégradé blanc et bleu du haut et de la jupe évasée ; j'aime beaucoup la délicatesse des perles de ses boucles d'oreilles !
ReplyDeleteI'm on the fence about this dress. The top is ok, but the skirt seems too busy to me. But it's quite unusual for the imperial family's style. Only Kako is capable of bringing innovation and freshness to the imperial family's outfits. For that reason alone, I think I like this look.
ReplyDeleteCe type de vêtement est peu habituel au sein de la cour impériale.
ReplyDeleteEh bien, je suis heureuse de constater que cette princesse apporte de l’originalité, de la nouveauté au sein de cette cour.
Son vêtement est une bonne idée.
J’aime les couleurs.
Néanmoins, si la jupe était moins longue, elle aurait été meilleure. Une longueur genoux aurait été plus seyante.
Je salue les améliorations.

Well what a surprise, she looks very nice, the only thing I would change are the shoes, which would make a world of difference. I feel it is wrong to say it is an improvement, because there is nothing wrong with the traditional style, it is just different, and no worse than the Brits and their kilts and house dresses.
ReplyDelete15:10 I like the way you’ve carefully written about the shoes, well done.
DeleteI agree with your assessment. I, too, would like to see some stylish shoes for Princess Kako. And I like kilts. But I certainly respect the Imperial Family's traditional dress codes. I am just happy that we will probably never see Empress Masako in a house dress.
DeleteHa! That housedress comment is funny!! True too!
DeleteI like the tye dye effect, but the skirt is too long and too wide. Because that is what I think it is, a skirt and a blouse in the same fabric. Each time she is greeting someone she has to bow, but I don't see the Japanese who are living in Brazil much bowing for her. I know that a few pictures do not show everything. The Japanese community who is living here seems to be adapted to the Western way of living.
ReplyDeleteI don’t see bowing just bending at the knee to be face to face with people
DeleteDelicieuse Kako, indeed. She’s such a joyful looking person, a delight. Love her in this vibrant and full-skirted outfit, and hope she had a chance to do a few full twirls to demonstrate the marvel of a proper full skirt. - Mary
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, for me she can do nothing wrong: such a delicate and refined person. How amazing it must be for the members of the Japanese community she meets that she so warmly greets them: no distance there between a member of the imperial family and ordinary people!
ReplyDeleteKako looks really elegant and modern. And I observe that she is out and about a lot. I wonder why we see the daughter of the emperor not a lot. Is that against protocol

Princess Kako used to work three days a week as a part-time employee of the Japanese Federation of the Deaf.
DeleteThis year, in order to concentrate on her official duties, she reduced her work to two days a week.
Princess Aiko prioritizes her work at the Japanese Red Cross Society over her official duties.
Princess Kako has been actively involved in official duties since she was a university student, traveling all over Japan.
When she was a student, Princess Aiko rarely participated in public events, citing her academic priorities.

I think it´s either the skirt OR the top. Not both. Too much of a good thing.
ReplyDeleteStill a fun design and a welcome departure from the usually very demure style of the Japanese royal ladies.
Kako looks amazing. Her hair is very pretty. And the dress wow lovely. She is certainly but subtly changing the JRF style. Mary
ReplyDeleteShe is gorgeous this Princess. She has the most beautiful smile. Lovely to see her in a vibrant colour.
