The make-up, hairstyles, and clothes of Japanese women in the Edo period (1600-1868) differed according to their social class, status, occupation, and region. This can be seen in ukiyo-e prints of women at that time. This book will give you a deeper appreciation of the chic fashion of Edo beauties.
