What is a geisha?
Geisha are traditional, female Japanese entertainers whose best skills include performing various Japanese arts such as dance and classical music and painting.
Throughout history, geisha most likely began the earliest stages of their training at a very small age, sometimes as early as at 3 or 5 years old.

In the seventeenth-century Japan , the early geisha, a mix of actress and prostitute, worked on the stages set in the river bed of the River Kamo in Kyoto. The fine line between actress and prostitute was then very fuzzy. The women would preform erotic dances and skits for their audiences.
These pleasure rooms quickly became glamorous entertainment forums that offered much more that just sex. The highly decorated and appcomplished, courtesans of these districts entertained their clients by singing,dancing, and playing music.
One would think the biggest industry in Japan is shipbuilding, or making transistor radios or cameras. It is entertainment!! The term geisha literally translates to mean “entertainer.”
I first heard about the geisha dress on the oprah winfrey show and ever since then I have a very nice and stlyish assortment of geisha dresses stocked in my closet. A geisha dress is a must have for any woman wanting to upgrade their fashion statements and give a new wrinkle of sexiness to their wardrobe.
A geisha dress is one of a kind and is not for the girl that likes to go to a party, sit in the corner, and eat hor d’oeuveres all night. This dress was made for dancing and sparkling. It can also be made from a polyester, spandex blend and the skirt lined with white satin.
After oprah mentioned geisha dresses on her show i went to www.geishadress.weebly.com They had the best prices and 2 day shipping, so i was was ready to strutt in my new giesha dress by the weekend!!!
