I would love to know some more about male kimonos! Maybe a series would be really interesting!
oh yes... I'm planning on such a video, but I need to collect all the items (my husband is not too much into kimono), but I will talk about it soon ad I am currently sewing a kimono for my husband.
"Don't put your hands through that, it won't help you" made me cackle. X3
I hugely appreciate how you've noted every single detail. I thought I knew the procedure fairly well already, but nope! ❤
Billy, you might be making the kitsuke videos around. The fact that you put that short segment in with the left sleeve removed was particularly useful. You are also making good choices with regards to the colours you are using too, we can actually see the folds and the contrast between the kimono and other items.
Thanks for noticing all my thoughts I had for this video (btw until being able to choose the right colors was a long way...) It takes some time to plan good tutorials, so I am very very happy about your comment!! 💖
I recently found your channel and I am overjoyed! My father gifted me an exquisite antique kimono years ago and now I know how to properly and respectfully wear it. Your instruction is so clear and straightforward. Thank you so much! I can't wait to practice. :)
Your comment makes me really happy!! ❤️❤️ Hope you enjoy some of my other videos, too 🦔
I’m gonna cosplay hiyoko saionji and I need to learn how to put on a kimono correctly thank you!
I love this! I can FINALLY put on a Kimono! Arigatou gozai'masu Billy-chan!
Wow, that is so beautiful. Everything in Japan is an art form
Thank you, Billy! From the Florida Kimono Club of Florida. This will help so many of our new members not feel so intimidated by kitsuke.
Oh, you are so sweet!! Thank you so much!!! 有難うございます💖
There's a club in Florida? I live in South West Florida on the coast and I'm about to get my first kimono!
Billy san, thank you for this vid. I'm Japanese living in the US for over 40 years. I inherited many Kimonos from my mother while back but don't know what to do.....I want to help my dau in law (japanese) wear my mom's kimono for the new years, 753, etc. Our 1st grandkid will have 753 this fall so it is helpful.
I just found your channel because of COCoVid, I immediately subscribed. I’m an American of Chinese and Japanese descent. I’ve always been fascinated by the Japanese traditional dress for men. I’d love to learn more.
Your videos are good quality and instructionals extremely clear. Thank you! All my kimono lessons were in Japanese, starting with a study abroad in Tokyo in 2002. I always felt like I missed so much of the finer points and labels because of my Japanese language level. It is great to hear your clear instruction in English. Yeah!. Although your method of wearing kimono has some differences from what I learned, I plan on adopting many. There is always something new I can learn even though I have my own kimono license.
I saw a video on instagram with someone putting on a "goth" kimono. It didn't seemed right since I have seen people wearing a kimono before, so I went to look for a tutorial and found this. It sure takes long to put a kimono on but it's so beautiful. I'd wear one if I'd visit Japan. Perhaps one day.
The COLOUR of that kimono is absolutely stunning, and the pattern is so gorgeous. I absolutely love it! Wow, I'd love to get my hands on one like that. Sigh.
Fantastic video with clear instructions. Thank you
Thank you for this useful video! I'm glad to see such a brief but clear instructions.
Thank you so much I just bought a kimono in Japan and I thought it was too long 🤣🤦♀️. I am so happy that it's not. I didn't realize there was that many steps to put on a Kimono. No wonder people used to need help. I need to buy some extra things for my Kimono now. 👘 😅
Thank you for your help. I love wearing kimono! But there’s not much info online on how to wear them. My kimono look so beautiful now with your help. Thank you!!
Thank you Billy-san for this super informative YT tutorial! Super helpful for newbies like me and super easy to understand.
I’m an artist and don’t have one, but I want to understand the clothing. This helped me so much! There is so much to learn and I appreciate you teaching people!
A very beautiful blue kimono, the fabric is lovely. Very helpful step by step video! Thank You!!
This is such a useful and well thought out video, thank you so much! I've been in love with kimono for many years, but only bought my first few this year. Now I feel like I can actually try to put them on! :-D
You're comment is really too sweet! I'm about to cry. I really do think a lot about how to show different things in my videos and I am so happy that you feel a little more confident about wearing kimono. Thank you!!!
A few years ago I got to wear my kimono to a shinto shrine here in America for a new years ceremony
I was walking around downtown Sapporo, when I found a lady selling used kimonos for ¥1,000 with that deal, I just had to get one. On the way home, I was thinking thank goodness for Billy Matsunaga's UA-cam channel, otherwise, I would have no way of knowing what to do 😅
Hi. Im From Kumamoto. living Vietnam.
Thank you for introducing Kimono!!
I am absolutely in love with your video. Thanks a lot!!
So useful, and such a beautiful kimono!
Muchas gracias, eso fue muy educativo. Definitivamente seguire viendo tus videos😘😘😘😘
Thanks so much! Sending love from Florida!
Thank you for sharing, I found you recently and just had to subscribe. I am new at the whole sewing thing and my dream has always been to make a traditional Japanese Kimono, though im a bit lost on the width measurements, however, I will eventually get it :). Thank you once again for your extremely informative videos. Looking forward to many more.

I was just at an anime festival and I'm obsessed with kimonos cus i got to wear one on stage, it was so cool, thx for the help
Fantastic kimono vlog! 😊🇯🇵🌸
Just got my new Yakata. from kimono yakata so now I can put on properly
Thanks for this video! And good to know, that we don't have to use a datejime. I think I will soon try again to put on my kimono :D
Pretty nice..love it
So detailed, thank you very much
I'm glad you like it! Thanks for the comment!
This is a fantastic tutorial for basic kimono wear, I’ve been wearing Kimono for several years now but I still learnt some great tips!
My question, Billie, is about the Obi Musubi that you suggested, as the link is to a tutorial for a Han-haba obi musubi. I was under the impression that Han-haba obi were only for wearing with Yukata, not Kimono, am I mistaken?
ziah papaya hi! Yes, you are mistaken. Hanhaba can be worn with casual (only casual!!) kimono as well as yukata 😉 which is cool, because it makes it so much easier to wear casual kimono mir often ❤️ I’m also talking a lot about what you can combine with what kimono on this channel.
ziah papaya I’m pretty sure that you already know a lot about kimono, but this video can also help to erase some common prejudices about kimono rules ua-cam.com/video/4V5BhVH1rc8/v-deo.html
Billy Matsunaga Wow, it is amazing how many misconceptions float around regarding what you can and can’t or should or should not do with Kimono! I love that there is so much to learn, thanks for the clarification Billie, you are awesome 💜🙌🏼
ziah papaya thanks for your comment! That shows me that I should stress such rules more often in my videos ❤️
This is really good
Got lost about half a minute into the video
But still great 😄
You are amazing and beautiful 💕I love Kimono and English!!
Thank you so much, Yuki!! :)
Hello Billy~san. I was just wondering if this would be the same process for getting ready with a hitoe? Thank you very much.
excellent video !! she could serve as a model for my wife who is starting to learn the kitsuke !! thank you very much Billy👏😊!!
Hi! I hope your wife has a good start into kimono 💖 Would love to see some pictures of you 2!
@@BillyMatsunaga with pleasure!! I would take pictures of me and my wife occasionally!😊
My mom got me a Nezuko cosplay bit than I realized I don't know how to put it on
Same
I'm waiting for a Lady Tamayo cosplay in the mail, so I thought I'd check this video out lol. Hi fellow KNY fan! 😂
It's actually funny because I'm putting on Kokushibo's Kimono
Yeah but the nezuko cosplay doesn’t come with that other kimono inside it just comes with a kimono with those white strap thingys
Lol same but mine is the lady muzan cosplay
I love this blue kimono! Is it an iromuji?
Thank you for a really informative video as always! As we approaching colder seasons I’d really like to know more about means how to stay warm in a kimono as well as outer garments like haori and michiyuki, and I recently saw a video about Margaret (マーガレット) have you ever worn something like it?
Oh... what could a "margaret" be? I've even googled it Japanese and nothing popped up besides the flower or kimonos with that flower as a pattern.
A video about kimono coats and things really sounds like lots of fun!! Thanks for this awesome request, I'm definitely gonna cover that in the next months (but not now, because Kumamoto still has around 26 degrees Celsius very day...).
Billy Matsunaga Margaret might actually be a モモンガコート, sorry for the confusion. I saw 京都きものTV video here on UA-cam and they called it Margaret so I thought it was a thing.I guessed it’s still quite hot in Kumamoto, so I look forward to you video when the weather will become colder✨
So, all the folds and creases that appear on the back оf the kimono when it is tied for the first time I just smooth out to the sides? I'm an absolute beginner and struggling a bit. I would really appreciate if somebody could help!
It will help me so much ! I hope I will have a really nice kitsuke for the next convention !
thank you! i wish a nice convention in Kimono and don't forget to share pictures!! 💖
@@BillyMatsunaga two days of convention so two kitsuke ! I have some days to do some of your magic tool for a perfect kitsuke 😀
Sarah54474 2 days is even better!! Have a good time!! 💕
Where can I buy a good kimono? Any shops you know in Japan that sell online?
Hello, I was wondering we if you can recommend an online shop to get kimonos, nagajuban, kitsuke, obi’s, etc. It’s very difficult to find any shop in 🇬🇧 . Thanks. Elena
Hi Billy, I've googled this question but found nothing really useful. Can you PLEASE discuss how to buy kimono in the right size? Esp the shouldar widths. If you have already done a thorough video on this, let me know. Thank you.
How do you keep the right side from falling down??
Is there a place in Kyoto or Tokyo you would know to buy a second hand kimono?
I'm trying to get one but a new one is so expensive 😢😢
hello, I am looking to buy a KIMONO. do you custom sell them ? or would you recommend a place in united states to buy one?
Lovely, I will share this :)
thank you so, so much!!!! 💖
Kimonos are so beautiful. They are so much work though lol
I'm sorry but I HAVE to tell you that muna himo is super funny in Finnish. Muna means dick (also egg) and himo means lust. It would be spelled as a single word but otherwise is literally that. Anyhow, beautiful and very informative video. And surprisingly funny for some of us😅
This is really helpful, thank you. I still have problem with my collat which moves strangely when kimono is on. :(
thank you! hm... I wonder why it moves strangely? in which way?
@@BillyMatsunaga Well, in happens whe I put on my furisode, when I make the obi knot. Because it is a furisode I make the knot in front then I make it turn to the back. After that my right coller part is doing a bump... or the left part of the collar is moves too much to the right :(
Can I have tut for the yukata? Too thx for the tut of kimono
I am shocked i didn't expect that it has all these steps to wear a kimono and i didn't even expect or know that people take classes to wear kimono
Hello Billy sensei.. I will be practicing this tonight.. my friend who volunteered to dress me up just backed out last minute so I can’t find someone to help me put on my kimono today and it’s tomorrow so I am panicky today..😭😭please help..
Also I find it very hard to hear you on max volume. Possible to record these at a higher volume??
Best tutorial I have found. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to learn and it is hopeless and sad since I own two sets of amazing kimonos and obis but cannot wear them to any Japan event. I never should of fallen I love with Asian art which caused me to fall for Japanese culture and history. It has kinda been a curse.
W o W! I didn't know why i admire the kimonos Soo much, now I know *0*
Do you have any tips on how to line up a kimono with the nagajuban? The collar of my kimono is unusually wide (it is about 5 inches wide, it’s kind of insane). Do you know how I could try to make that fit?
Yes: you’ve to fold it, when putting it on. And this video shows you how 😉
@@BillyMatsunaga Thank you! It took me a dog’s age, but I finally found the small snap in the back I’m supposed to use 😂! Thanks a ton!
Arigato gozaimasu, Billy-san!
Thank you I was

How do I put this
On-😭😭😭😭🖐🏻😭🖐🏻😭🖐🏻😭😭😭🖐🏻🖐🏻😭🖐🏻✨✨✨
12:26 what is that part called and how do I put it on? Or is it unnecessary for one's first kimono?
Late, but if your still curious that's an obi of some kind. It's pretty important from what I understand, and is one of the main differences between men's and women's kimono.
I saw you walking in your kimono in one video, and your steps seem very small. Do kimonos limit your stride, and if so, can anything be done to remedy this?
Should the kitsuke cost about 40-50$ US? That seems pricey and I feel I can make these items myself. Do you have a video to make this set?
SED Comics hi! It depends on what the set contains. It could also be pretty cheap. Check out my DIYs on this channel for a few items. I’m slowly adding more and more items.
My biggest issue with everything is getting my collars to lay flat. When I get dressed, it bubbles up and doesn't lay against my chest/neck.. Any advice on how to get it to lay flat
hi! sorry for the very late reply! you have to remove the air between the layers. It will help when you swipe with your flat hand gently over the collar downwards. But do bot pull, because that would pull up your back collar.
Is the bottom layer and socks Mandatory
Sometimes I don’t see people wearing the bottom layer
I was given a pretty original white Kimono with pretty flowers and leaves on it, buuuttttt I was not given any belts ;-; just the robe 🥲
where would A person pick up A kimono in America for like inuyasha cosplay
Mine comes with a bunch of extra strings and one belt thing along with a bow
same it confused me
i'm too tall to do the fold at the waist :( i'm 5'10
If we don't have this what we will do
This is hard for me because I bought a kimono with strips put on the sides for me
very helpful. thanks. sayonara.
Going to the bathroom must be an absolute chore.
Can I go to Kimono Japanese Activities in Grants Pass Oregon?
Meet Japanese Individuals and Community or Japanese Local Society of Grants Pass Oregon.
You might want to check out my latest video and have the question answered by Erika 😊
hello
People in eastern Japan call 伊達締め so when you say 伊達巻き I imagine おせちlol
I can't imagine going to the bathroom dressed in so many layers. 😳
Hiyoko Saionji Is typing...
伊達巻きは卵料理ですよ笑笑
ははは！そうなんですね！！！それはすごく面白いですね（笑）熊本にはそんな料理がないそうですよー！
How would a pregnant woman wear a kimono?

RIP beautiful pink Kimono...
Put a F in the chat to pay the respects for Pare's pink Kimono. F.
