On February 18th, actresses Kikukawa Rei (33) and Gouriki Ayame (19) made their appearance �Kimono Queen Contest 2012� in gorgeous kimonos at this event.

At this contest, Kikukawa wore a simple, white kimono while Gouriki wore an elegant, black kimono to this event. Regarding this annual contest, Gouriki stated, �I love kimonos. It was a lot of fun.� She added, �I think a white kimono is perfect for a wedding. I yearn for it,� and admired a traditional Japanese wedding.

Then Kikukawa, Gouriki�s senior at her agency, declared, �I hope she doesn�t get married before me!� In response to this light joke, Gouriki assured her with, �I wouldn�t, I wouldn�t. I would marry when I find time in my personal life.� Kikukawa then revealed, �I don�t have any plan of marrying just yet, I want to ask God when the time will come,� and smiled with this comment.
