Hear about the fascinating introduction of 'haburagin', the ceremonial attire worn by female priestesses in Amami Ōshima by Sakura, our Visitor Experience Assistant.

Morinaga Kunihiko, fashion designer and founder of ANREALAGE, researched this garment worn by young priestesses, known as 'noro', on this southern island in Kagoshima Prefecture.

Haburagin is made from cuttings sourced from different kimonos forming a patchwork of triangles, each representing a butterfly or moth and symbolising the presence of departed spirits. The coat thereby invokes the collective strength of the spirit realm to protect its wearer.
