Wow! Princess Mako looks so regal and stunning in her white gown with the jewels and a beautiful tiara.




She´s a pretty thing, but this dress (at least this badly tailored jacket) is simply awful!
She looks like "auntie Mako" or a grandmother in it....

Thanks for the updates!
Princess Mako looked lovely. I wonder whether or not she is going to pose in her special furisode for Seijin no Hi.

... I wonder whether or not she is going to pose in her special furisode for Seijin no Hi.

We have to wait until the second Monday of January and see.
I believe, she will.

TIH the Prince and the Princess Akishino and their eldest daughter Princess Mako have introduced the Ambassadors of 12 countries (among them Kenya nd Ghana) to the traditional Japanese duck 'hunting' at Chiba pref. on November 29th, 2011.
The hunter has to try to catch a wild duck with his bare hands, which is quite a challenge. The ducks are to be 'pardoned and released' after the hunting. The Japanese believe, the ducks will fly away and take all the troubles and sorrows with them.

Princess Kako turns 17

HIH the Princess Akishino-no-miya Kako, the youngest daughter of the Prince and the Princess Akishino, turns 17 years old on December 29th, 2011.
No official photosession for the princess, since she is not a child of monarch or of heir to the throne.
I like this recent photo of the sweet young Princess a lot.

Princess Kako and her parent attend Prince Hisahito's kindergarten on Culture Day - November 3rd, 2011.
