Dress-up Day


I went to the Japanese Friendship Garden yesterday to take a walk around and I spotted this group of young ladies feeding the koi.


I have no idea why they were dressed this way.  I was going to ask but, they kind of isolated themselves in one spot and were busy conversing with each other.


I only spotted one flower blooming at the garden so it was good thing these young ladies were there.  If they hadn't been, there wouldn't be much to take photos of this time.

    Certainly something different! And they definitely make these garden shots more interesting.

    How STRANGE! They look like they're dressed up like characters from a movie -- Japanese Anime, maybe? Just a guess.

    Great photos! They look like they're reliving the 90s. The 1890s! Cute! What a beautiful place, too!

    It looks very unusual for a Japanese Garden! But it's wonderful that you could take pictures.

    Looks like some kind of a party. Some people just know how to have fun. Interesting!

    Certainly colourful! Hmmm. I'm curious too but, like you, I probably would not have asked them...even the person with the lacy parasol.

    I'm thinking Japanese anime, based on the overall look and certain details like the stockings.

    They are all very cute, but it is a mystery to me, too.

    Green Boris bikes. I hope yours don't end up with a label like ours that has nothing to do with the person who created the idea.
