On January 30, 2026, Prince Akishino and Princess Kiko, accompanied by their second daughter, Princess Kako, visited the Sunshine City Cultural Center in Toshima, Tokyo, where they toured the 74th Kanto–Tokai Flower Exhibition. This year’s theme of the Kanto–Tokai Flower Exhibition is ‘A Journey to Tochigi: An Invitation to a Life of Flowers'.
The exhibition features more than 1,500 flowers and foliage plants cultivated by producers from 12 prefectures across the Kanto and Tokai regions. It is organised by one metropolitan area and 11 prefectures from the Kanto–Tokai region, together with five floriculture-related organisations, with the aim of deepening public understanding of flowers and encouraging greater flower consumption.





A very attractive skirt length on Princess Kiko. DIQ
ReplyDeleteSince I love flowers I would like to visit this beautiful exhibition!
ReplyDeleteAs always, it is a pleasure to see Kako!
Mère et fille sont élégantes - J’adore les voir dans cet environnement floral au cours duquel elles écoutent des explications dont je suis envieuse ; de belles fleurs parmi les fleurs !
ReplyDeleteI like both outfits from the CPss and her daughter. Pss Kako always has a nice smile.

I agree, mother and daughter look very nice, but Prince Akishino needs a new hair cut, this style does nothing for him.

Unfortunately, in my view, the Akishino family has often been the target of public criticism in Japan, particularly online, and the stress seems to be reflected in Prince Fumihito’s appearance.
DeleteHello @2:22 ! your comment caused me to go and read your on the family and indeed they have been very much criticised and for a long time. I did also learn whst a clever family they are, with both parents having earned PhDs.
DeleteI believe Princess Kiko and Princess Kako have the best sense of style in the Japanese Imperial Family.
ReplyDeleteAgree! But then it's hard to tell from a western perspective.
DeleteVery fair Coralie. I respect this comment very much.
DeleteMother and daughter look equally lovely. Love both these outfits. Both always look stylish and smart.
ReplyDelete案内役の白髪の紳士はとても上品ですね。
ReplyDelete秋篠宮も昔、白髪だった時期がありました。
彼はいつも英国式のレジメンタルタイですが、そろそろスタイルを変える時期ではないかと思います。
Prince Akishino might appear stressed, I cannot tell, but what I can see that his hair is dyed, which ages him, the colour is very harsh and perhaps he should go back to his old ways, when he did NOT dye his hair.

Princess Kako looks less good as before.
ReplyDeleteHer white skirt has too much of an A-line and is too long. She always holds her bag (clutch) with her 2 hands before her belly. She should look how her mother wears her bag, she looks more relaxed than the daughter.
@ 07:55 About the hair of the prince : I do not like men's hair with a separation in the middle. I'd never heard before of a British regiment's tie. Many men all over the world are wearing ties with lines like this. Changing a bit the design now and then would look nice.
このようなストライプのネクタイをregimental tie と呼びます。
Deleteイギリス式は線が右上がり。アメリカ式は線が左上がりです。
