In Japanese culture, the kimono is the traditional garment that was formerly worn on a daily basis. Its name literally means "thing to wear". Today, it is reserved for special occasions, tea ceremonies or religious celebrations. This large T-shaped dress with characteristic long sleeves and a wide belt became the most popular medium of expression for Japanese artists. As a result, Japanese kimonos are adorned with beautiful patterns, emblematic of the Land of the Rising Sun 👘.

This garment is nowadays declined in many forms, and available throughout the world. It must be said that its casual style with its ethnic notes inspires the greatest fashion designers. Fashionistas are also seduced by this original piece of clothing and adopt it in every look. Moreover, it is an ultra-trendy jacket for streetwear fashion.

In the 60s and 70s, hippies took over the kimono with Flower Power 🌻 and fringe designs. It was no longer worn tightly across the chest as in Japan, but rather casual, open and loosely falling over the hips. The fabrics are adorned with various patterns ranging from the most refined to the most extravagant. Floral prints, ethnic prints or tie and dye shades are highly popular!

If you have a small waist, you can wear the kimono opened, whereas if you have a figure 8 or hourglass ⌛ shape, you can cross it on the front and wear it with a belt.

Voluptuous women will choose a rather long and flowing kimono, plain or with small patterns, while slim women will opt for a more fitted version.
