Lightweight Kimono is a Japanese traditional garment considered as Summer Kimono or Casual Kimono. It can be worn by men, women and children. You can see people wearing this kind of kimono at Japanese festivals all over the country. If you are interested in Japanese culture, it will be useful for you to learn this.

Steps

1. 1 Choose the one you like kimono.
2. 2 Dress him up. Wrap your arms in long sleeves so they don't get in your way.
3. 3 While holding both ends of the fabric in front of you, try to find the center line (where the fabric is sewn) on your back using your other hand. Secure the garment in the center.
4. 4 Open your clothes and lift up to the level of your ankles.
5. 5 Move the left side forward and measure the length and width.
6. 6 Open the left side while you measure the length and move the right side to the front. The bottom of the right side should be raised 10 cm from the ground.
7. 7 Leave the right side and place the top left. Measure the length. The bottom of the left side should be raised 5 cm from the ground.
8. 8 Use Koshi-Khimo, and tie the garment around the waist. Make sure to tie it well so the fabric doesn't hang. Observe Koshi-Khimo.
9. 9 Find the side pockets, put your hands in there, and throw extra fabric over Koshi-Khimo. Make sure it reaches the back and front.
   • The layer of fabric located at the waist is called Ohashori. Ohashori is usually worn below the waist
10. 10 Fix the Ohashori shape and tie the second Koshi-Khimo just under the bust. You don't need to tie them as tightly as the first time. Take note of Koshi-Khimo ..
11. 11 If you are skinny, you can use extra fabric in the upper torso. From the side of the pockets, move the back fabric to the front and cover the additional layers with this fabric. With this, you will look beautiful.
12. 12 Ready! Make sure to tie it around the waist to look like a real kimono.

Tips

• Make sure to sweep up the edges of Koshi-Khimo so they don't stick out.
