Kimono Experience

You can choose your favorite kimono from our selection, and a professional dresser will assist you with dressing. For ladies, hairstyling is also included. Once you slip into your geta or zori sandals and your transformation is complete, you are free to enjoy the day however you like.

Stroll through historic temples, draw a fortune slip, or relax with traditional Japanese sweets at a cozy café. Even a familiar place—like a coffee break at Starbucks—feels completely different when you’re dressed in kimono. Ordinary moments turn into something unique, something you can experience only in Japan.

And of course, the photos you take in kimono will become cherished memories of your time in Japan!

These days, very few people wear kimonos on a daily basis. For most Japanese, kimonos are reserved for special occasions, such as coming-of-age ceremonies, weddings, and festivals.

Those who try wearing a kimono are often surprised at how much effort is involved in putting it on correctly. It’s easy to see why everyday clothing has shifted to Western styles—much more convenient and practical.

Yet when you see someone wearing a kimono on the street, even casually, it’s impossible not to feel a sense of pride. Its beauty exists in a way that is entirely different from modern convenience and efficiency—a quiet, timeless elegance that continues to captivate.

Kimonos come with many traditional rules—what patterns and fabrics to wear in certain seasons and occasions, how to tie an obi, and so on. In Japan, there’s even a playful term, the “Kimono Police,” for seasoned experts who strictly correct anyone not wearing their kimono properly.

However, this strictness is gradually relaxing today and more flexible approach is emerging—one that embraces casual and modern styles, allows personal expression, and encourages everyone, especially young people, to enjoy wearing kimonos in their own way.

Not just in Japan, but when traveling around the world, haven’t you ever seen children wearing traditional clothing and been so charmed that you couldn’t help smiling?

We believe that the beauty of traditions passed down from parent to child, across generations, is truly irreplaceable. Our hope is that these customs will be known, experienced, appreciated, and loved by people everywhere, so they can continue to thrive for many years to come.
