How To Fold

A Kimono

 

 

 

View Items

 

 

Lay the kimono down flat with the top being on your left as shown in the picture.

 

Fold the right collar and front panel back towards you along the seam. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take the left collar and panel (the side farthest from you) and fold it back to align with the right collar and panel.  Make sure to align the collars so that they are matched up all the way to the top of the neck area.    

 

Take the seam (not the edge) farthest from you and fold it back towards you aligning with the seam closest to you. 

 

Do the same with the upper part of the kimono.  Take the sleeve and collar and fold them back towards you.  There is a crease in the middle of the back of the collar, so it should fold right up.

 

Take the top sleeve and fold it back away from you. 

 

 

 

Take the lower part of your kimono and fold it up to align with the top.  It should be resting on the top sleeve.   

 

 

 

Hold the top and bottom and flip your kimono over.  The last step is to fold the remaining sleeve back towards you.  It should be resting on top.  There you go.  You have just successfully folded a kimono! 

 

Yoku Ganbarimashita!    (You did well!)
