I have this:
 

I also have this:

Do I want to make this (with the purple geometric)?

Or this (with the white)?

Or just wear my karaginu mo to Twelfth Night?

EDIT. Bad girl, no citations! Both those pictures come from the Kyoto Costume Museum website at http://www.iz2.or.jp/english/

No, it's actually a woman dressing as a woman who just so happens to wear men's clothing. If I'm not mistaken, the second picture is of a shirabyoshi dancer. They typically wear kariginu and carry men's fans. But they are not in drag. They are not attempting in any way to look like men. It's just what shirabyoshi wear.

I agree that she should make the second one, though, for similar reasons. Who wants to dress as a boy? Huff!

It's much too Victor/Victoria at this point. As always, I bow to your much greater knowledge and just say

MAKE DA SECOND ONE!
