Countryside Information

It's March, 1601. The country's stuck in the transition between the Azuchi-Momoyama Period (the Sengoku Era) and the Edo Period. With Tokugawa emerging victor after the end of the Realm Divide (Sekigahara War), everyone's on edge in this time of uneasy peace...
Toyoshima
Welcome to Toyoshima, a province right along the coastline of mainland Japan. The year is 1601 and the flowers are resting heaveningly. The samurai from the Battle of Sekigahara are slowly returning home. Only problem is, there's no way to really tell which samurai is on which side, and with Tokugawa's recent orders to eliminate any surviving Western soldier, everybody's actions are warped by caution...

Can it be assumed that the women during these times wore simple things, like female style kimono and simple dresses? The fashion page seemed more centered on men, so I need some clarification.

Women fashion, fabric-wise, would be very much like the men's. Rich, expensive fabrics such as silk for the shimin class, elegant hairstyles, and a more refined sense of beauty. Nomin (farmers) would have very simple clothing, nothing overly fancy like a shimin woman would wear. The artisan class wears the same thing, while women of the merchant class would wear something of a blend between the shimin and townspeople class.

So, yes, what you were thinking can be assumed indeedy. Hope that helped. wink.gif
