Students graduate in style at art college - The Japan News

In Japan, March is a time for graduation ceremonies. At most universities and graduate schools, it’s traditional for outgoing students to attend in their student uniforms, suits or kimono.

Things are quite different, however, at the graduation ceremonies for undergraduate and graduate students at Kanazawa College of Art in Kanazawa, the capital of Ishikawa Prefecture. Outgoing students are allowed to attend in unique costumes of their own choice.
