| | Japanese Kimonos |
| | Historically, the Japanese kimono was a very important part of the Japanese culture. | | | The color, length of the sleeve, and design of the fabric (Japanese kimono), were all combined to tell the observer the age and status of the wearer, as well as the season of the year. | | | Custom sashes can be worn instead of the traditional obi, making your garment easier to wear; the obi is usually 10-12 feet long and in most cases requires assistance in tying. |
