...In the cities, men wore black monfuku with hakama, and women wore shiromuku with a white obi, but the shiromuku and white obi for women gradually fell out of fashion, and in the Showa era, women began to wear black monfuku with a black obi, just like men, and even more informally, they may wear only a black obi instead of mourning clothes. On the other hand, in rural areas, old-fashioned styles are still passed down, and mourning clothes are called iro, irogi, shirogin, kataginu, ureigimono, etc., and are made from hemp, cotton, or white cloth, and are used as chihaya, kataginu, kosode, etc., as well as irogi, a roll of white cotton wrapped around the shoulders and waist, and iro, shiro, monkakushi, etc., which are white cloth draped over the shoulders or folded in four and draped around the collar, and these can also be considered a type of mourning clothes. Furthermore, attention should also be paid to headgear worn during mourning and funerals. If one goes out during the 49-day (hon'imi) period, it is customary to wrap one's head in white cotton cloth, calling it "tento osore," and men who are afraid of attending a funeral will place triangular pieces of cloth or paper on their foreheads, calling it "kanmuri," "kamieboshi," "shihou," "kamikakushi," "mikakakushi," or "manji no nun," or wear a white cloth headband, or wear a woven hat made of rush grass, calling it "kichugasa," as has been the custom in various places.

*Some of the terminology that refers to "ureigimono" is listed below.
