| Among court nobles, suikan called 'choken' (outer garment with wide sleeves) made of undyed white plain weave silk or thick white plain weave silk with white strings, black sodekukuri (straps to turn up the cuffs), tassels and black tassels of the same material, was often used as formal wear for boys before they came of age. |
公家社会では、白生平絹や白精好地に白い紐、黒い袖括りと菊綴をつけ、同じ生地で黒い菊綴を着けた「長絹」という水干が童形の礼装として多用された。 |
