Cosplayers, idols, waitresses and bikini models dress up to celebrate Maid’s Day in Japan

TOKYO|

Japan has a day for everything, thanks to a combination of months and days which, when pronounced together with a variety of Japanese, Chinese and English readings, create words which sound similar to a number of well-known products, events or activities.

That’s the story behind Honey Day, or Hachimitsu Day, on August 3 (8=hachi 3=mitsu); Gomi Zero Day on May 30 (No Garbage Day [5=go 3=mi 0=zero]); and even “onani,” Masturbation Day on July 10 (0=o 7=na 2=ni 1=i]).May 10 was also a special day, with the alternate reading for 10, “do”, creating the word “May-do”, making it the perfect day to commemorate Japanese maid culture. Fans and maids alike all had fun celebrating the day on Twitter with the hashtag #メイドの日, “Maid no Hi” or “Maid Day”, and we picked out some of the best to share with you!

To start things off, let’s take a look at some of Japan’s well-known bikini models dressed up in uniform.
