History of Japanese kimono

 

Kimonos as we know them today came into being during the Heian period (794-1192). Originally, kimono was the Japanese word for clothing. But in more recent years, the word has been used to refer specifically to traditional Japanese clothing. They have been known as the straight-line-cut method, it involved cutting pieces of fabric in straight lines and sewing them together. Kimonos were easy to fold. They were also suitable for all weather: They could be worn in layers to provide warmth in winter, and kimonos made of breathable fabric such as linen were comfortable in summer. These advantages helped kimonos become part of Japanese people’s everyday lives.

Nowadays, the kimono is always used in important festival or formal moments, it is the representative of polite and a very formal clothing.

Japanese people wear kimonos for such occasions as weddings, funerals, tea ceremonies, or other special events, such as summer festivals.

         Why Japanese kimonos are special?

Traditionally, kimonos are sewn by hand, even machine-made kimonos require substantial hand-stitching. Kimono fabrics are frequently hand-made and decorated. 

Besides, Techniques such as yuzen dye resist are used for applying decoration and patterns to the base cloth. Repeating patterns that cover a large area of a kimono are traditionally done with the yuzen resist technique and a stencil.
