The geta she's wearing is typical for her rank. There is a special way of walking in these things as you can see in the movie Sakuran with Anna Tsuchiya in the main role. Great movie! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f03GnZGXRTk&feature=related here you find another example. It's an oiran Dochu. The parade of the oiran. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNncpdEFOB0 The girl in the middle of the second picture is an oiran (highest rank of courtesan in Edo period).

It hurt like crazy! Once again, I have new respect for women, geta and high heeled shoes...things they have to go through for fashion (or in the geta's case...cleanliness) Thanks for the article!
