This kimono is special because my mother had it made for herself. The other ones came from my aunts. She had it made to wear when I graduated from elementary school. It is sharkskin komon. I remember her wearing it when I graduated.

私の着物のほとんどは叔母から譲られた物ですが、この着物は母が自身のために誂えた着物で、とても特別です。母が私の小学校の卒業式のために誂えました。鮫小紋です。私の卒業式に、母がこれを着ていた記憶があります。
