Hi Peter, Some very nice stuff to look at! I like some of the Warrior ceremonial outfits. I think a lot of people will find it interesting and helpful to have a look at this stuff.  Im getting married in the near future and ive nearly got my lovely lady convinced we should save and honeymoon in Japan and would love to see her in some of the beautiful stuff the Ladies used to wear in the good old days. Thanks for sharing
