Autumn kimono debut with Komon

Autumn kimono debut with Komon

From October, the world of kimono will also fall.
The temperature has calmed down, changing from moist summer air to crisp air, and the perfect season for wearing kimono is autumn. Autumn is a fall of art and a lot of fruit. Why don't you make your kimono debut from the summer yukata in autumn, which is the best season for kimono?

Komon that can be enjoyed like a dress

Lunch with a friend at a nice and unusual shop, date him, go to museums and solo exhibitions…What do you wear to go out on an autumn day? I like casual T-shirts and denim, but sometimes I want to wear a colorful dress with floral patterns and patterns.

Konmon is a kimono that can be worn in a fashionable manner without being flashy or sober.

A small crest is a pattern with a pattern drawn on the entire kimono.

When you open your mother’s or grandma’s kimono chiffon, there is always a small crest.Recently, at a recycling kimono shop, a lot of unique small prints have come out at reasonable prices, which is surprisingly familiar.

Four season flowers scattered throughout.A classic pattern such as a large hemp leaf or a cloisonne tie.When you look at it, it looks plain, and when you look at it, the pattern is drawn with fine dots…

Komon has a variety of designs, and it is unlikely that someone will wear it.If you are not familiar with patterned clothes, it is recommended that you choose a small pattern with a smaller pattern than a large pattern.
Please enjoy a unique fashion with small prints in colors and patterns that you wouldn’t choose in everyday clothes!

Which band is to match the small pattern?

After choosing kimono, the next thing to think about is obi.
Konmon can be easily combined with Nagoya or half-width belts.
Nagoya belt is a belt that makes a single drum that makes “Otaiko” on the back.It is OK even if you tighten the half-width band fastened with a yukata to a small pattern! However, let’s enjoy the transparent material and summer half width only in summer.
If you feel that the pattern of the crest is a little flashy, it is recommended that you put together a belt that is close to plain and it will make you feel like an adult.

Add haori to change your mood

Kimono with the same small crest can be enjoyed by changing the atmosphere as if it were another kimono.

Haori is an outer type that has a clear front and a visible band.Haori can be worn indoors like a cardigan.

If you don’t feel confident in knotting, you can hide your back belt by wearing a haori.So Haori is also a reassuring ally for dressing beginners.

It also has the nice effect of wearing a haori to make you look slim.If you wear a long cardigan in your clothes, the vertical lines will be emphasized and you will be able to see it.The same effect can be expected from Haori.


How was it?
Introducing a small crest kimono that can be enjoyed as a little fashionable dress that is neither a yukata nor an adult ceremony or a wedding kimono.

Mr.Sazae’s mother, Fune-san, is always wearing a kimono, such as standing in the kitchen with kimono cooking.A few generations ago, just before the war in Showa and just after the war, there were many women like Hune-san wearing kimono 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.Not only luxurious kimonos for celebratory seats, but also kimonos for everyday wear.Kimono for everyday wear has a wonderful power that makes special days special.

Please try the kimono of everyday wear from Komon!
