About this product

Product Information

Kimono is a generic term for traditional Japanese clothing; it means "thing to wear." This book provides an overview of some traditional garments, introduces types of designs found in twentieth century kimono that are still available, and presents wearable art inspired by kimono from contemporary artists. The text gives price ranges for items that would be reasonable in a store or gallery, and explains what to look for when collecting. As kimono disappear from Japanese wardrobes, they are becoming increasingly collectible. Each of the fourteen chapters opens with the definition of the type of apparel covered therein (including simple, everyday, formal, etc.) as well as their use in Japanese life. The terms are further explained in the Glossary. Over 525 color photographs display brilliant and subtle textile designs and demonstrate beauty in men's, women's, and children's garments and accessories. Textile and clothing designers will find a wealth of inspiration here. Vintage clothing enthusiasts will be enthralled.

    Kimono golmine!

    I collect kimono books, and that is what I was looking for! The text is in english, which is rare and it's very interesting. Many beautiful pictures show different kinds of kimono, ie. how to wear uchikake. If you buy it you can manage to wear kimono by yourself!

    Buy it for the pictures but don't read the text

    Nice pictures, dreadful, inaccurate, actively misleading text - should be avoided.
