I had a very good time! There were a few mishaps with my planned off-campus accommodations, but the classes themselves were great. I got to meet people I'd only ever met online, see a lot of beautiful clothing, learn about some subjects I hadn't thought much about before, bought some amazing hairpins, and built up a good store of ambition.
But I know what you really want - pictures. (I freely admit that I'm not sure who most people in these are because I'm terrible with names and faces, so if you see yourself, please tell me!)
On Sunday, I went to a class on Heian-Era Japanese clothes, and because I was in (comparatively) light, short clothing I was asked to model, which was
fantastic as I was going the whole weekend in plain-clothes and was a
bit lot jealous of everyone else.
Many thanks to the wonderful
Costume Diva for taking the pictures of me!
