I wore this about 5 times for events like入学式 (entrance ceremonies) and 七五三 (Shichi-Go-San). There's no noticeable damage, but please understand that there is some minor wear and tear. The color is a deep navy. The back has some elastic. It's simple, but the paneling adds a nice accent. It can be used not only for ceremonies but also for everyday wear or work. #入学式 #入園式 #卒業式 #卒園式 #七五三 #セレモニースカート (ceremony skirt)
