On April 8, 2026, Princess Kiko and her daughter, Princess Kako, visited the “Yamamura Goryū Ikebana Exhibition,” held at Nihonbashi Takashimaya in Tokyo. Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arrangement. Its origins date back more than a millennium, when customs from China and Korea were introduced to Japan, including the offering of flowers to the Buddha.

The Yamamura Goryū is a traditional Japanese flower arrangement (ikebana) school with strong historical ties to the Enshō-ji nunnery (temple) in Nara. Approximately 70 works are on display at the venue, guided by the 13th head priest and grand master, Dōshū Hagiwara. Princess Kako, who was visiting the exhibition for the first time, toured the displays.

      In fashion everything is coming back ragularly, especially the length of skirts and dresses. I have known it was fashion to wear a mini dress under a midi coat.
