Funny how you throw it all together no matter if it's really a "geisha" or not. First of all there exists no "geisha kimono". There's only a kimono. Some are more expensive (like the ones of the geisha), some are cheaper. More than the half of the pictures are not even geisha, these are normal women who are working. The just have a knot in their hair nothing more. And at least three of these pictures are courtesans or in the japanese term "oiran"/"tayuu". Plus NO GEISHA did ever take her kimono off to serve clients just in underwear! That's against their codex. Like Kiki mentioned geisha DID NOT and DO NOT practice any sexual activity. Please get your facts and source right before you write something like this because this is the reason why people still think geisha are sex workers and it doesn't matter if she wears a kimono or a yukata, she's a "geisha" after all.
Besides that I really like the pictures you have here, they're stunning.
