[Tango-L] japanese Tango

[Astrid]

these two are Noriko and Akiyoshi Tanada, and yes, I am surprised about 
that costume. When I have seen Noriko, she was always wearing very 
subdued, conservative looking dresses that ended below the knee. Those 
two are married, they met in BsAs, if that makes you feel any better. 
And no, they do not come from contemporary dance, I believe, those two 
were ballroom teachers before. All their early performances showed 
valse. Japanese are extremely competitive people, and they overdo it 
sometimes, using whatever means they have at their disposal. If a 
transparent dress has to add some extra "passion", maybe...But this is 
definitely a new one.
