Kimono

A kimono is a traditional Japanese garment characterized by long sleeves and a wrap-around design, typically made from silk or cotton. It is floor-length and secured with an obi (a wide sash). Kimonos are often adorned with intricate patterns and symbols that reflect the wearer's age, status, or the season. They serve as formal and ceremonial attire, worn during events like weddings, tea ceremonies, and festivals. The garment embodies Japan's cultural heritage, emphasizing beauty, craftsmanship, and respect for tradition. Today, kimonos are appreciated worldwide for their elegance and artistry, often worn on special occasions.
