Kimono

*Tenshi-blues:iconTenshi-blues: reports, February 1
Possibly one of the most beautiful items of clothing; the kimono.
It wasn't until the Meiji era in Japan that the word ki-mono was actually used to describe Japanese clothing and it simply means "thing to wear".
I've had a fascination for all eras of Japanese clothing for sometime, but didn't realise quite how popular and diverse an item it could be in the Artisan Crafts galleries on DeviantArt!
Here is a small selection of the goodies that can be found:

Costumes/Clothing:


Folding & Papercraft:


Fibre Art:


Jewellery:


Plushies:


Accessories:


Culinary arts:


Ornaments/paperweights:


Custom dolls:


Quilting:


Woodworking:

Oh how wonderful :clap:
I saw some really really things here! I'm also a fan of Japanese culture as a whole, but kimono in particular is an amazing type of clothing. And it's incredible how beautiful these clothes can be!

A large section of my favorites have come from typing the word "kimono" in Search and just seeing what comes up! I love looking at them, I love collecting them and I particularly love wearing them. Kimono are amazing! Great article!
