Step into 1,000 years of Heian court elegance.
Authentic dressing by masters of the Imperial Aoi Festival.
The “Juni-hitoe” (twelve-layered ceremonial court robe) represents the ultimate pinnacle of Japanese classical attire, worn by imperial ladies and noblewomen since the Heian period. Each layer of silk reflects the subtle poetic colors of nature, embodying profound spirituality and refined aesthetics.
At SEIGA's “MUSUBI”, this is not a costume play. Dressing is performed by certified masters who dress the imperial procession for the 1,500-year-old Aoi Festival in Kyoto. Guests will experience authentic ritual dressing and timeless court etiquette in a tranquil private sanctuary.
