わふく【和服】
(a) kimono；((in)) Japanese dress [clothing]
説明
Wafuku is another word for“kimono”, or the Japanese national costume. A kimono is wrapped around the body over a juban undergarment, and is then secured with an obi sash, which functions somewhat like a belt. A kimono is worn with tabi socks and traditional footwear, such as zori or geta sandals. Unmarried women usually wear furisode, a formal type of kimono with almost floor-length sleeves. Men wear a family crest-bearing haori (a half coat) and a hakama (a Japanese kilt) over a kimono as their most formal attire. These days most Japanese wear wafuku only on special occasions, such as shichi-go-san (the children's ceremony), seijinshiki (the Coming of Age Ceremony), graduations, weddings, hatsumode (New Year's temple or shrine visits), funerals and memorial services.（意訳：日本の伝統的な服装で，着物とも言う．肌着である襦袢(じゅばん)の上に着物を着て，帯でしっかりと固定する．足には足袋(たび)をはき，草履や下駄をはく．未婚の女性は長い袖の振り袖を着る．男性の和服は紋付き羽織袴(はおりはかま)がいちばん格調高い．現在，日本人が和服を着る場面は七五三，成人式，卒業式，結婚式，初もうで，葬式，法事などと，限られている）
