1 June - Koromogae in Japan
In Japan, where so much thought is given even to minute details, it is but natural that a lot of thought goes even for changes in season. On 1st of June and 1st of October, the country follows a custom known as “KOROMOGAE”. It means seasonal changes of clothes to suit the season. The change is visible mostly in school clothes and work clothes. Clothes worn during the cooler months are cleaned and packed to be stored away till they are ready to appear on 1st of October. Similarly on 1st October, lighter clothes worn during the warm months are cleaned, packed and stored for the season.
Koromogae is not only about changing from short sleeves to long sleeves, but it is also a change of colors and fabrics. The department stores and shops will completely renew their collection, accessories, patterns and design for each season. The funny detail about koromogae is that in the end the change of wardrobe is done regardless of the actual temperature and weather.
