KimonoDreams Club

:bulletpink: What are we about? :bulletpink:
The main emphasis of the club is the love of kimono. We welcome all kimono related artworks; maiko, geisha, kanzashi, samurai, miko and wafuku/traditional Japanese clothing in general. We also welcome East Asian traditional clothing such as the Chinese hanfu & cheongsam, the Korean hanbok and so on. The limit of the club's interest is in East Asian cultures only (Japan, China, Korea, Macau, Mongolia, Taiwan) So sorry to say, we will not accept e.g. Russian or Indian clothing.

Hello everyone,

It has been a while. This group has become a little inactive, well only in terms of happenings and contests but I have still been able to accept submissions every few days. However, I'm facing a a busy time in life and my interests have shifted, I still love kimono, but because of inactivity from us I have decided to turn the group to auto-accepting all submissions.

I'm going to be testing it for a while but if it seems to work nicely I will leave it on. I don't want this group to go inactive just because I'm a little busy. I hope this is OK with everyone, if you have any opinions then let me know. Right now we get a few submissions every now and then so it should work quite well. :)

Edit: I have also added a new folder for 'tutorials' and will be moving all tutorial material there.

Happy April!
