Not hard to respect culture and not try to claim a traditional garb as your own. Take notes, Kimmy. 🙃

As a Japanese, I feel angry with Kim Kardashian. Kimono is Japanese culture, not the name of underwear!

This is a #kimono. Don't be using something so beautiful that belongs to the Japanese culture to make it into underwear. Just stop @kimkardashian. #kimohno #着物 #👘 #japan #ihateher #日本 https://www.instagram.com/p/BzMliEepNzB/?igshid=1u42c19paoao1

Why Japanese Are ANGRY With Kim Kardashian #KimOhNo #kimono

[anji-salz]

Just want to take this opportunity to thank you all for supporting the movement in clarifying what a #kimono actually is ❤️👘🙌🏻 The amount of DMs was overwhelming but made me very happy! I’m not a fan of stirring up shitstorms and calling out people, but this was a very touchy subject for me and the thought of googling kimono and having to search through an ocean of shaping underwear just made me numb 😭💔 Not even grasping how Japanese people must feel about having their whole culture taken for a PR stunt of @kimkardashian 🤭 I am really curious if there is any reasonable explanation. Please talk to us Kim! Let’s keep showing the world how real Japanese kimono can be ❤️👘❤️ Oh, this is my outfit from the other day. Asanoha on asanoha 😆💫 カーダシアンの件、皆さんの応援や声ありがとうございます。外国人として色々言いのもあれだけど、、日本人の皆さんならもっと悲しく感じるだろうね。 これからも着物の写真をドンドンにシェアしとこう🙌🏻👘💫 日本の着物が世界中に爆発的に広がるように！ #KimOhNo #mainichikimono #salztokyo (at Tokyo Imperial Palace) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzN9nn-HThl/?igshid=yak77u13kt8k

母から受け継いだ大島紬の着物と、祖母の形見の帯です。

It is a kimono of Oshima tsumugi inherited from mother and the obi-belt inherited from grandmother.

Japanese Women Share Stunning Photos In Their Kimonos After Kim Kardashian Tries to Trademark ‘Kimono’

The Voice of Global Asians

This is the definition of cultural appropriation:

Trademarking the name of a traditional significantly cultural item as a brand for your non-relevant products so that you can better sue the people from the original culture because once it’s trademarked, they’re not allowed to use the name anymore without paying the jackass royalties

BUT ALSO WHAT THE FUCK DOES UNDERWEAR, DOG HARNESSES, AND WHIPS HAVE TO DO WITH KIMONOS?????
