It is April and it is time to celebrate Hanami.
The Japanese Conversation Group will be holding their annual picnic at Hyde Park so what better place to promote kimono.
The picnic will start around 13.00 but we shall meet up before just in case we need to pick up some goodies on the way. We can't have a picnic without food and drink.
For more information about the group here is the website.

Once again if you have a kimono then this is a perfect opportunity but don't worry if you can't as it is not a compulsory.

Kimono and Chocolate or Kimono Jack goes to Cadbury World
Hello Everyone,
For our fifth Kimono Jack meet up we went to Cadbury World in Birmingham. Can anyone imagine a better combination than kimono and chocolate? I sure can't :) We saw chocolate through the ages and chocolate in 19th century London, as well as got to see how chocolate is decorated and even got to try some. At the end of Cadbury World tour we got ourselves some nice chocolate to take home.
After Cadbury World we went out for lunch and a nice chat. :)
Next Kimono de Jack event will be at Manchester Antique Textile Fair on March 6, 2010.

January 2010 Kimono Jack in London
Hello Everyone,
This weekend we had our 4th Kimono Jack in UK, the first one in 2011. This time we choose to meet up at the Barbican Art Gallery in London to check out the 30 Years of Japanese Fashion exhibition.
This time we had 5 people who attended, and one of them even came all the way from Leeds! We were very excited to meet her and hope to see her at our future Kimono Jack events. Sadly she wasn't able to wear kimono, but there is always a next time as I like to say.
It was a lot colder than we expected but lots of fun nonetheless!
Our next Kimono Jack will be in Birmingham on February 19th. We will be going to Cadbury World to embrace our inner child and enjoy some chocolate.

Hello everyone!
I can't believe it is our FOURTH Kimono Jack in UK, as well as the FIRST one for 2011!

The exhibition looks very interesting and I am looking forward to attending.

Please note that this is a ticketed event, so you will have to purchase a ticket yourself.

11 - 2pm
We will be meeting at Liverpool Tube station at 11am and then going to Barbican. You can either meet us there, or go straight to Barbican but we will arrive a little later.
As always, everyone who likes kimono is welcome. Please wear one if you have it, but if not then just come to hang out! We are happy to see any fellow kimono enthusiasts! :)
See you all there!!

Happy New Year 2011!

Happy New Year everyone!
2010 was a special year for Kimono de Jack in UK. Back in September, when I first go the idea that we in UK should also have Kimono Jack events I never realized that it will be met with such a support from everyone. Thank you!
Since the first Kimono Jack in London we had 2 more successful meet-ups, one in London and one in Birmingham. We even met new kimono enthusiasts that became a part in our small (for now) kimono group in UK. And 2011 is promising to be even better for Kimono Jack! We already have several meet ups lined up for months ahead. Stay tuned and visit this blog or our Facebook page for updates.
2011 here we come! May it be everything for you that 2010 failed to be!
