| | Yukata is a type of kimono worn by both men and women during the hot summer months. | | | The obi (sash or belt) is to be worn under the stomach area, to emphasize the bulge of the belly, which in the olden days signified wealth and economic prosperity; but with young metrosexual men and gay men being very healthy and image conscious these days, the bulge is no longer... | | | Perhaps the cultural ministry wished for the young people to wear the traditional costumes from time to time, if not the full kimono then at least this informal yukata. |

| | Anime Tourist - Reality in Anime (Part 3) |
| | Newer non-traditional designs and colors have made the yukata more popular as a daily outfit, since they are simpler than Western-style clothing. | | | After a bath, this robe would be worn while lounging, hence the yukata’s affiliation with Japanese inns and hot springs. | | | The actual word “yukata” is actually a combination of the word “yu,” which means “bath,” and the word “katabira,” which means “undergarment.” Thus, as the name suggests, the yukata were originally worn as a bathing robe by ancient Japanese court nobles and many sources say they were first woven from hemp. |
