I was so impressed with this video cause she is the foreigner to try to wear the kimono by herself. I was wondering why the Japanese younger generation doesn’t have same passion to the kimono as her. Anyway this video will open someone’s eye to wear the kimono.Great and thanks so much.
Thank you for the videos :) I'm french and it's difficult to find a tuto about differents musubi. I have a little collection of kimono and obi. Your videos help me very much (sorry if my english is bad...). The kitsuke is really an art and difficult. Thank you for the videos and your time to explain us the differents knots^^
Thank you so much for these videos about the Biyosugata so now I can use mine! But mine it's a DIY one since finding one to buy it's hard and expencive!
THANK YOU FOR ALL 12 OF YOUR VIDEOS!!! I binge watched them today and found them so instructive for a beginner like me! Thanks again for taking the time and effort to make them, and to such a high quality too! could you maybe do some videos on colour and pattern coordination for pretend events you are going to? For example - if you are going to a friends party, what kimono would you wear, what colour, which colour obi and obijime and obiage etc. tips like that would be quite useful too! (thats if you have enough kimono and different coloured obi to do a range of videos like that..) Thank you, and your cameraman/woman!
I'm glad you enjoyed the videos! For coordination, your first step is to choose the correct formality to match the event. It's called TPO (time, place, occasion). This is the most important thing. You also want to consider fabric weight (summer or winter weight) and the motifs (are they autumn plants, spring flowers, etc). Only after all that is considered do I think about color, and that's only for matching a kimono with a specific type of obi. Ideally, you want every piece (kimono, obi, obiage, obijime) to pop against each other so you should avoid matching colors. Color combos that would not work in western clothes are perfectly acceptable in kimono (for example, purple with yellow or green with orange). I hope that answers some of your questions. Good luck with your kitsuke!
thank you! i dont actually have any kimono, obi etc (unfortunately) but am planning to make one as part of a sixth form project for Textiles, as a costume to wear to a Vocaloid convention/expo! i hope to base it on the traditional kimono whilst giving the costume a modern twist, and wanted some colour combo advice. thank you for your reply, and i will have a look at some TPO stuff on google. :)
The biyosugata is definitely hard to come by. I can't find a one! I know sometimes people get lucky and score one off ebay or some auction sites but not me. This style of obi tying seems easy with the biyosugata >.>

These videos were GREAT! very instructive and easy to follow. I would love to see more .
Thank you so much for making these video's! Thanks to you I was able to do what my Japanese coworkers called impossible: put on a furisode by myself!
Would love to see other types of musubi made with a biyousugata

I think colors are something like up to each one of us and personal tastes, but yeah tips about style and proper kimonos could be usefull!

For this reasons I made one myself! It's not so hard do make one, you can try!
