On April 17, 2025, Japanese Princess Kako visited the Ishikawa Prefectural Wajima Institute of Lacquer Arts in Ishikawa Prefecture. During her visit, Princess Kako met with members of the Japan Crafts Association. The Ishikawa Prefectural Wajima Institute was selected as the recipient of the 18th Yomiuri Aoniyoshi Award, which honors individuals and groups committed to preserving and passing on cultural heritage.

The Institute of Lacquer Arts is a key facility for preserving and passing down the traditional skills used to create lacquerware, including the renowned Wajima-nuri. In the city of Wajima — the birthplace of Wajima-nuri — many workshops were destroyed or collapsed due to the January 1 earthquake. Since then, recovery efforts have enabled approximately 80% of the nearly 400 workshops to resume production.

    C'est toujours agréable de voir cette charmante et toujours souriante jeune femme !
    Les boucles d'oreilles sont très jolies mais sinon le reste de la tenue n'est pas idéal, cette veste est trop grande pour elle. Paloma.

    彼女がつけているイヤリングは漆の工芸品だと思います。
    漆の工芸品には、定番の黒や赤以外にも様々な色があります。
    私は漆の水色の指輪を持っています。

    Did she borrow the shoes? Please tell me she borrowed the shoes and those are not the actual ones she wore to the event.

    There's a difference between an "oversized-style" jacket and one that is just too big and ill fitting. This is the later. Also, you have to have a certain flair for fashion attitude to wear the style. The conservative, reserve, demure, attitudes of the Japanese royal ladies doesn't really work with it.

    1. I think these are not her own shoes, but special shoes to protect the floor. This is not unusual in some ancient buildings.

    She is drowning in that jacket.

  5. Dès que je vois écrit « princesse Kako » dans le titre, je m'empresse de regarder ses photos ; toujours souriante, je remarque qu'elle sait choisir ses boucles d'oreilles mais au niveau de sa tenue, il me semble que pour être portée avec son pantalon, une veste moins ample et plus courte l'aurait avantagée !

    What do you think about the color balance of jacket and pants?
    I think the beige jacket and black pants is too bad.  The jacket is too big for her.
    And her blouse is too noisy.

    ジャケットのボタンは二つだけで良いと思います。
    黒のパンツは若々しさがありません。

    She has a beautiful smile and always seems to be so gracious to people she meets. It’s a shame the stylist has no idea to dress a beautiful young woman.

    This jacket is way too big for her; she is a petite woman.
