On April 22, 2025, Japanese Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako hosted the traditional Spring Imperial Garden Party at the Akasaka Imperial Garden in Tokyo. The Emperor and Empress of Japan invited 1,800 guests to the 2025 Spring Garden Party, including a professional golfer, an international ballet dancer, and other distinguished individuals, along with their families, in recognition of their outstanding service.
Princess Aiko, Crown Prince Akishino, Crown Princess Kiko, Princess Kako, Princess Hisako, Princess Akiko, Princess Tsuguko, Princess Hanako, Princess Nobuko, Princess Yoko, and other members of the Imperial Family attended the 2025 Spring Imperial Garden Party.
Invited for their contributions in various fields, the guests included mangaka Tetsuya Chiba and former women’s softball national team coach Taeko Utsugi. Also present was professional golfer Isao Aoki. The garden parties are believed to date back to 1880, when Emperor Meiji held a chrysanthemum viewing party.
As always, Kako is the loveliest!
ReplyDeleteKimonos are always beautiful and interesting. The empress's kimono is quite understated and elegant. I prefer kimonos with colorful patterns like those worn by Kako, Kiko and other ladies. But the overall look is very beautiful.
