You can make it casually with a small piece of fabric.
Let's start with this one garment.
Once the kimono is made, next is the haori.
Once you become familiar with making traditional Japanese garments, try challenging yourself by making them with linings.
It's a women's kimono with two-shaku sleeves and long sleeves.
It is an undergarment for the upper body. Choose a comfortable fabric and tailor it.
You wear it underneath the nagajuban or hadajuban. It's also fine to wear it directly under the kimono. Much more comfortable than wearing a T-shirt underneath, and even when taken off, it's a stylishly Japanese fashion statement.
A simple construction without an Okumi part. If you add strings, it becomes the upper half of a jinbei.
This pattern is perfect for those who want to enjoy the look and feel of kimono, even in the hottest seasons. Designed like a Western-style shirt with no front overlap, this garment allows for excellent airflow and avoids heavy fabric layers. It looks traditionally Japanese but feels as light and comfortable as Western clothing—possibly even cooler than a knit T-shirt.
For those who think sewing a kimono for the first time is too big, with a half-width Obi belt, you just have to cut it into a square and sew straight.
Once you've mastered the half-width (hanhaba) obi, let's try moving on to the Nagoya obi. It consists of two main parts: the body wrap and the taiko drum knot.
It's an andon bakama (skirt-type).
It's an umanori bakama (pants-type).

This is a longer version of the tabi socks. By adding elastic, it provides a better fit. Keeping you warm even in winter.
This is a raincoat that can be worn over a kimono. The sleeves are attached with a wide opening, so unlike ordinary raincoats, your sleeves won’t get bunched up and can fit comfortably inside. Thanks to the extra back allowance, especially for women’s styles, it won’t feel tight at the back.
Hanao is the thick string attached to zori, geta or setta sandals. Why not decorate your footwear with your favorite patterns and colors? The basic technique is a straight stitch on a sewing machine. There is a little bit of hand sewing at the end. You can make it by hand in just a few hours.
