What is kimono?
Kimono, in English, means “wearing thing.” But the garment everyone associates with Japan was not always called by that name. Its long history is one of the best examples of how clothing confers a sense of identity.
The first ancestor of the kimono was born in the Heian period (794-1192). Straight cuts of fabric were sewn together to create a garment that fit every sort of body shape. It was easy to wear and infinitely adaptable.
By the Edo period (1603-1868) it had evolved into a unisex outer garment called kosode. Literally meaning “small sleeves”, because of smaller armholes. It was only from the Meiji period (1868-1912) onwards that the garment was called kimono.
Fabric quality, choice of pattern, thread, paint, wood-block print, and color were essential criteria for presenting the rank, age, gender, and refinement of the person wrapped in it.
