Hello, it's Aaron again. Don't mean to bother but I have a question.

What do guys wear when girls wear kimonos?

... I really don't have a clue.

Guys wear Kimonos too. Or regular clothes.

It doesn't matter.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

So... it won't be bad to wear a tux or a suit like I was planning?

[promisebreaking.livejournal.com]

You're not Japanese, are you?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

No. I'm American... uh... east coast.

[iinchoucat.livejournal.com]

Men can wear kimonos too.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

I've never wore one before, I don't think I'd even know what to do in one.

[iinchoucat.livejournal.com]

[She giggles a little.]

There's nothing you need to do. Just wear it and enjoy yourself.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, there are men's kinomos, but that'll be hard to find in Mayfield. If it's for the prom, I'm sure it'll be fine if you just wear a suit.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

That won't look funny if she wears a kimono?

[[Hey Crowe... Aaron learned something about you. Possibly.

He's just going to avoid it though for now.]]

[AWKWARD TIMES ARE GO. Crowe has no idea!]

I don't think so. But, you could always ask around, maybe someone has one. There's a lot of Japanese people here. It's not enough time to get one made, and I doubt Mayfield would have the proper fabric anyway.

Does what the girl wears make a big difference to what the boy wears?

He is S-M-R-T too.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't know.

I know, like, we are supposed to match a little or something if she was wearing a dress but I know nothing about kimonos or what's expected.

let them explore the world together

[biophases.livejournal.com]

Oh! Like on TV when the boy wears a tie the same color as his date's dress? I always though that was cute.

[winning-road.livejournal.com]

It depends on the situation and how traditional it is. If it's something like a date, we'd just wear something nice, like a button-up shirt and slacks.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

It's for the prom... I was going to wear a suit or tux, I just didn't know if I wasn't supposed to?

[winning-road.livejournal.com]

No, that sounds perfectly fine; if anything, dressing in formal Japanese clothing would look a little strange. The only guys who really wear clothes like that are usually old or from extremely traditional families.

[hop-toit-udonge.livejournal.com]

If you're not Japanese, you should probably stick with male western formal wear.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Oh, good. I really didn't want to try wearing something new this close to prom.

So it won't look weird right?

[hop-toit-udonge.livejournal.com]

Yes, dear.

[inababanchou.livejournal.com]

There are guy kimonos too, though for kids our age in Japan you don't have to wear a kimono when your lady friend wears one.

[ Is a dork and is answering from the other home phone. Hi not!brother! ]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[[Blinks at the phone a moment and is going to put it down a moment. Hi Souji! Your not!brother is walking over to see if you really just did that.

You did.

He's nice though so he is going to pretend that didn't just happen.]]

So, um, it's okay to just go in a suit right?

[inababanchou.livejournal.com]

[ Is smiling like a dork when Aaron comes to the other phone in the kitchen. ]

Is this about Prom? Prom's a Western thing, so I think tuxedos are better-suited for guys anyway.

... Who are you going with?

[im-the-cute-one.livejournal.com]

Fundoshi.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Fun... what?

[im-the-cute-one.livejournal.com]

Fundoshi!

You're a guy, right? So you wear fundoshi.
