KIKUKO’S STORY 2 着物物語2
This summer joufu originally belonged to my grandmother’s housekeeper. She wore it a lot, but had no relatives to give it to, so she gave it to my grandmother. It came to me from my grandmother. This kimono joined people in the same generation and across generations, and came to me.
この夏の上布は祖母の使用人の物でした。彼女はこの着物を愛用していましたが、譲り渡す家族がいないので祖母に譲りました。その着物が私のところへと来ました。この着物は祖母の時代に、同じ時代の人たちをつなぎ、時代を超えて、祖母の時代と私の時代とをつないでくれています。
