Shichi-Go-San
Each autumn on November 15th, families in Japan with young children celebrate a tradition known as Shichi-Go-San, which literally means “seven-five-three”. Families visit a shrine or temple with their three, seven or five year olds to pray and give thanks for a child’s health and happiness. On this festive day children wear traditional Kimono attire; girls wear a Kimono with Hifu vest or Obi belt, and boys wear Kimono with Hakama trousers. Prices for a complete children’s Kimono outfit can go up to more than 2000 euros. Some parents rather choose to rent their child’s Kimono attire at a Kimono shop for this special day.
