Just about everyone is familiar with Japanese kimono: the beautiful and most recognizable traditional of garments in Japan. What you may not know, however, is that “kimono, ” which literally means ‘thing that is worn, ’ encompasses many styles, and can be worn for various occasions in Japan. From casual, lightweight yukata worn during summer festivals, to expensive, high quality furisode worn for formal occasions, kimono are woven into the fabric of Japanese life, even in modern times.Though the kimono is a decidedly Japanese form of dress, it is said that its roots are from China. The earliest form of kimono were worn as a type of undergarment, gaining popularity in Japan during the Muromachi period (1392–1573), when they began to be worn without hakama (traditional Japanese trousers), and paired with a sash called an obi. It wasn't until the Edo period (1603–1867) that the kimono as we know it today really came into its own, with an ever-expanding variety of colors, fabrics, and styles available. The obi became wider, and the length of the kimono sleeves grew as well. Kimono are typically only worn by women or girls, however, there are some exceptions.
