Cool for the summer

Aoi-Tayuu posted a host of great photos for the Gion Matsuri! We see her in her current attires which have some very cooling elements like the blue/purple/blurple hagoromo and the see-through kushi and hairpins as well as lovely lantern kanzashi that evoke parties of star gazing in the cool of the night.

She also shares the artistic progress of her Kamuro and Shinzo, the Kamuro already perform Gion Kouta amongst other outer seasonal dances.The photos are from a rehearsal with a subsequent meal. There is also a very cute photo of them bowing to the photographer and you can witness the refinement some of them already display in the position of their fingers when softly touching the tatami mat. The Suehiroya family is very cute together and Aoi seems to enjoy working with these young girls, they even went to the Gion Matsuri together. The little ones were all dressed in yukata and got to eat cotton candy and fish for goldfish… Adorable! I truly hope these girls stick to it and we can see them debut in the kagai themselves, maybe there is a chance that one of them could be a Tayuu herself one day!
