Each store has a selection of more than 1,000 kimonos on hand at all times. (The type of kimono you can choose varies with the course.) We have a wide variety of styles, from cute to cool, chic, classic, and unique, as well as brand name kimonos. Feel free to choose the kimono you like best.
I’m not sure which plan to choose.
On the day of your visit, take a look and decide. Plans can be changed on the day of your visit, so select whichever plan you like.
I’m very tall (or short), do you have kimonos in my size?
We have plans for special sizes, such as those over 170 cm, wide sizes, and small sizes. We also have a wide selection of original, tailor-made kimonos at our shop, so you can set your mind at ease. We also have large sandals available as well.
Can I walk around in a kimono if I’m not used to it?
Many people are unaccustomed to wearing kimonos. At our shops, we strive to learn a high level of kimono dressing skill so our customers can be as comfortable as possible. Our customers are able to enjoy the day strolling around, so please set your mind at ease.
How much time does kimono dressing and hair styling take?
Selecting a kimono + dressing + hair styling + getting ready to go out takes a total of about one to one and a half hours. The time it takes to choose a kimono varies from person to person. Also, please understand that, even if you make a reservation, you may have to wait. The area is congested during peak sightseeing seasons, so please give yourself extra time when visiting.

Yukata rentals are available for a limited time only, from June to September. We also carry a number of brand-name yukatas! We also have a wide selection of light kimonos, such as single-layer kimonos and summer kimonos, available during summer. Enjoy a kimono or yukata tailored to the season.
