  These are Maiko Girls or appentice Geisha from Kyoto with their distinctive Darari Obi (dangling obi) and Hikizuri Kimono, which have full hems that trail after the wearer. A beautiful photograph!

  Hi there, I am currently writing an online article about the lives of Geisha women, the traditions and harsh lives that they follow. I want to educate and inspire what these women were about, and the lives they had to live. Please will you grant me with permission to feature this image in my article? Image credits will be provided alongside with a direct link to your work. Thank you, Emma

  I shared this image with several friends of mine who spent a lot of time in Japan and who study Japanese culture. One said, "I can identify that the dancers are performing Nihon Buyo."
