Rent a cute antique kimono and enjoy eating your way through Asakusa!
This time, we are introducing a sophisticated winter outfit using a simple antique kimono!
Even though spring is approaching, there are still many cold days. Let’s enjoy sightseeing in Asakusa while keeping warm.
We also introduce recommended street food, so be sure to read until the end!
This time, we’ll share the behind-the-scenes of the model photoshoot at Rikawafuku Asakusa store.
Simple Antique Kimono × Optional Accessories
Antique kimonos usually give a retro impression, but this time we deliberately chose a simple kimono.
By adding seasonal fur tulle and a bag, along with a girly embroidered collar, obi decoration, and tulle, you can create an elegant adult look without losing cuteness!
For this kind of coordination, neat and elegant zori sandals are recommended♥
Each optional item is 500 yen.
For details on Rikawafuku Asakusa store options, please check their official Instagram or the option introduction page.
Here’s the back view! Adding tulle enhances your look from behind as well. The fur shawl also keeps you warm.
All plans except the basic one include a hair set, so you can get a cute hairstyle like this!
If you’re unsure which hairstyle to choose, please refer to the photos in Rikawafuku Hair Set Gallery♪

Recommended Street Foods When You Feel Like Snacking
Not very hungry, but want to eat something…?
In such cases, the must-try Asakusa treat is agemanju! They are small and easy to eat.
There are several specialty shops along Nakamise Street.
Flavors include red bean paste, matcha, sesame, chocolate, custard, and pumpkin. Share different ones with friends for variety!
Since the shooting day was near Valentine’s Day, we chose chocolate! For more photogenic options, matcha or pumpkin may be better… haha
