It looks nice, but that's a kimono, not a yukata, (as far as I can see). It seems kinda black for summer...

Well i cant seem to find another color that i like (red or yellow) all i can find are blacks, browns, and blues. Iam not a fan of brown or blue, and iam sure id get some weird looks wearing a yellow kimono.

I really love Kimonos ^^. I think that's the most beautiful Clothes in Japan, right? ^^. I wish I could have a chance to see Kimonos my eyes ^^.

I have this old kimono that's actually from Hong-Kong, but it looks pretty Japanese. It's reallly short from the waist down, though. It just barely went past my knees.

For Furisode Obi sash, there are lots of knotting styles. I also pictured them with description in both English/Japanese.

Visit my site and have a fun :vsign:

The lecture was given by a graduate from a Kimono School in Japan. They also displayed kimono in glass cases. Those silk embroidered furisode are beautiful works of art. Expensive too. When you buy the furisode, obi, and all the accessories the price easily equals that of a car. :eek:

I bought a Kimono from the Collection du Japon boutique at the fair. But now I don't know what to do with it

Anyways, here are pics ^_^


Furisode. Worn by young unmarried women, they are the most expensive and elaborately designed. Kirei!


Yukata. Light summer kimono usually made of cotton. Popular wear for matsuri, bon odori.


Kimono is win! I think kimono wins because of its elegance.

I have a collection of kimono pictures. I can share if you like.

where do they sell them?
