Geishas are some of the most cherished women in Japanese culture—and fascinating to everyone else around the world. They combine grace, beauty, style and wit into something both wonderfully alluring and a bit intimidating. But there is a lot more to the geisha than her painted face and gorgeous kimono. Traditionally, geishas would start their training at ages as young as four. Over the years, they learned everything from the skill of gambling to how to properly serve tea, from graceful dancing to insightful conversation. It took a lot of work to become a full-fledged geisha.You don’t have years and years to perfect the art of being the perfect hostess. You only have a few days until the annual costume party. Luckily, you’ve already found the perfect kimono… but no fashionable geisha would ever step outside without the perfect shoes to go with. How convenient that we happen to have these Geisha Sandals! These lovely sandals feature a red, gold and blue design and come with rubber soles to keep you from any ungraceful slipping or sliding. That would kind of ruin the effect!
