Shirabyoshi Drift by Semienigma on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Okay, Yo'! It didn't come out as nice as i would like but it is more a concept or outfit planing? Anyway, This is a woman dressed as a Shirabyoshi, I just found out about them the other day. x3 I think i am really developing a liking for These women. Geisha, Oiran, Tayuu, Shirabyoshi, I like them all x3.

Now this one's clothes do differ rom what actual Shirabyoshi wear, they dress in male shinto attire and don't go around showing off their belly like that XD The idea came from a character in an anime i saw a while ago called Harukanaru. There was a Shirabyoshi in that anime that had a nice figure and the shape o her outfit was similar to this.

this is how they really dress

Just so you know they were mainly preformers, like Geisha/Geiko but not Courteans like the Oiran and Tayuu (( or the most part ><) They were beautiful and very intelligent!
