Women in kimono

Women always look nice in kimono. Or so I think. While the kimono doesn't enhance any of their natural curves (in fact, it hides their natural curves) and wraps them up with little to show, it is exactly these features of the kimono that attracts. The more covered a woman is, the less she has to show to appear attractive. For example, being covered from neck to ankle, just a show of a bit more of the nape of the neck is enough to send suggestive signals. The drawing up of the sleeves to show a bit more of the forearm is enough to do the same too. Definitely more attractive than the near bare-all of bikinis.

For those who don't know, there is actually a lot of knowledge behind kimonos, and it isn't really easy for the untrained to wear on their own. The older generation is used to wearing it (it used to be their daily wear) but the younger generation usually needs someone to help them wear it.
