Improvement Happens (or What a Difference a Year Makes)

I recently did a redo of some ensembles from last year, and the improvement is evident. Here's the pics:

The trends I notice from the past:
• Messy obiage and objime
• Long and poofy ohashori
• Kimono and nagajuban collars separate and uneven
• Little or no padding

Overall, my style seems neater and more mature. Things I hope to keep improving on:
• Keep collar from moving forward (need to make more chikara nuno)
• Smoother ohashori and obiage
• Flatten "the girls" more
