How to Wear a Miko Outfit
Part 1 is about the undergarments.
Part 2 starts at 5:34 and is about the kimono (Byaku-e).
Part 3 starts at 10:25 and is about the hakama (Hi-bakama).
I hope this video helps people who are interested in learning how to put on a Miko’s garments. This is meant to help cosplayers and people interested in learning more about Miko clothing. I am not a Miko (shrine maiden) and this is not meant to be religious (Shinto). I did research (in Japanese) on how real Miko wear their garments and did my best to represent it accurately given my knowledge of secular kitsuke (kimono-dressing).
I have several years of experience with kimono and learned kitsuke from a Japanese Dance Instructor, but am not an expert by any means. I do not have a license or anything like that, for instance. I would consider myself an enthusiast.
Lastly, I apologize for the less than stellar sound quality in this video. It was mostly recorded with my cellphone and there's some background noise I couldn't get rid of. (^^;

Part three, how to tie a Kai-no-Kuchi knot using a Kaku-obi, starts at 11:08. This video is meant to help Cosplayers (directed at people who Crossplay) with putting on a male kimono.

How to Make Rinoa's Ultimate Weapon, Shooting Star

This video is a walk-through guide of how to make Rinoa’s Ultimate Weapon from Final Fantasy VIII, Shooting Star. Final Fantasy VIII is a game very close to my heart and making Shooting Star was a passion project. (*^_^*) Many of the materials you can find easily.

How To Cut Bangs on a (Synthetic) Wig for Cosplay Using a Wig Head

Just getting started with cosplay and have a wig with long bangs that you need to trim?

    What if you bought the miko outfit from an online store, ProCosplay in my case, that only sells the kosode, and hakama, no other stuff? Very basic compared to what you showed. Would this be helpful to men who wants to cosplay as miko, such as Kikyo?

    • @kayacosplaytutorials
      @kayacosplaytutorials 2 роки тому

      Hello! I'm so sorry about the late reply. The white kimono does not have openings under the arms. Those openings (called miyatsu-kuchi) are present in women's kimono where you have to adjust the length (making an overlap called the o-hashori). Because the white kimono does not require a length adjustment (due to being worn under a hakama) it does not have those. I hope this is helpful!

      Hi!! Thanks for commenting on my video! I bought my Miko Outfit through Rakuten (a platform which sells items from Japan). The shop I ordered from was called ODORI COMPANY. Here is the link to the Hakama: item.rakuten.co.jp/odori-company/sj-854/ And here is the link to the Byaku-E: item.rakuten.co.jp/odori-company/n5455/ (It's in Japanese which might make it a bit hard, but unfortunately I don't know of an English link I could send you.) Be sure to check the size information very carefully before ordering. Rakuten has a Global Shipping Consolidation Service called "Rakuten Global Express" that allows you to order from shops that would normally only ship to Japanese addresses. They give you a Japanese address (which is their warehouse address) and then when they receive the items you've ordered they consolidate and ship everything out for you in one package. I recommend waiting for a shipping discount promotion if you're not in a rush since shipping from Japan can be quite expensive. It also makes sense to order all the things you would need and wait for everything to arrive and be consolidated to save on shipping costs. They can hold items for up to one month. I hope this helps!!!

      @@MomoMochi I thought that the foam looked the best since it's somewhat translucent. I don't know of any sturdier materials with quite the same look to be honest -- but you can look around and see what you find! For what it's worth, this prop is still in one piece at my home and hasn't fallen apart or anything so I think the material is sturdy enough for what I've used it for (posing for cosplay photos and carrying around at local conventions 😆)
