Autumn is for...

... kimono!      Most of Japan, like the North East, has four clearly defined seasons - each with its own ways of being celebrated. But only autumn is associated with doing so many things. In addition to the milestone celebrations for 3, 5, and 7 year olds in November , the top five associations for fall this year were: Delicious Fall 食欲の秋 (shokuyoku no aki), Sports Fall スポーツの秋 (spotsu no aki), Artwork Fall 芸術の秋 (geijutsu no aki), Reading Fall 読書の秋 (dokusho no aki), and of course Fall Foliage 紅葉の秋 (momiji no aki).       But we think that one more should be mentioned. The falling temperature in autumn makes us wear warmer layers - this is perfect for kimono! Many people are enchanted by spring’s cherry blossoms and take the opportunity to wear kimono and spend time with the trees for a photoshoot. The same thing can be done with the brilliant fall foliage!  For those of you still on the hunt for a chill but simple Halloween costume, we have someth...

Back to School

     When you think of September, what comes to mind? For us, there are a few things: cooling weather, apple picking, and school starting. Thankfully, covid calmed down enough in the US to have in person goodbyes before saying hello to 2021 campus life. This school year, hopefully we can look forward to more school gatherings and colorful performances.       Are you looking for a store to supply your Japan Club's wardrobe, to buy a back to school gift for yourself or a new college student who loves Japan? Look no further! Kimono House has everything from festival wear, like happi , to lounge wear, like our cotton kimono robes. Be it on-campus or off, for an event or just relaxing, one of the most comfortable and easy to wear items is a cotton kimono robe. We have them in different patterns, lengths, and sizes.             Visit our website to see a sampling of our offerings or call for a consultation. Kimono House ...
