Whatever might have been the function the costumes presented here (theatrical, folk, masquerade, et cetera), the quality of the construction, the richness of the fabrics and trims, and the artistic thoughtfulness of each piece is remarkable (and the fact that they have survived in such a well-preserved state) - I'm sure you'd agree! :) Enjoy and happy sewing! 1).

A JAPANESE FAIRY FROM FAIRY-LAND JAPAN

Ca.1920 by an unknown photographer. Probably a TAKARAZUKA GIRL, if she had been born only 30 years earlier, she might have become a talented Geisha. Although my photo title paints her as a Japanese 'Tinkerbell", as flickr poster Muiz Anwar points out below, she is a BEE, and not a "Fairy". On the other hand, Okinawa Soba never guarantees that my Titles are accurate.
