The photos don't do it justice. The piece is really beautiful, and the fabric feels soft and exquisitely high quality.
Make extra sure you double check your size because remember, we tend to be a bit bigger now than when these vintage pieces were sewn.
I recently bought two beautiful Kimonos, one for my daughter and one for me after our recent trip to Japan,
The material is lovely and the craftsmanship is exquisite. I will be buying jackets to go with them in the near future.
Can't wait to see my daughters face on Christmas morning.
The website is so easy to use and the shipping was quick.
Okay this is one of the most authentic and inspirational haori I ever had!! Even when I decided to wear this on campus in college, everybody was really amazed about the colors and the fabric. Even the best part as myself a fashionable person I wear every clothing aesthetics and especially with the haori it became even better!! I really enjoyed the neatest package and the greatest care!!! Arigato!! Love this shop and the crafters here!! 🌸🌸🩷
I purchased 3 pre tied obi from here to go with the yukatas I bought here as well. These are very good quality with lovely designs in the fabric! Bow part is tied beautifully as well. I know how to tie my own obi for yukata, but I'm often in a hurry and want a quicker and easier option when getting ready! Pre tied obi are great, whether you're a beginner or a master. :) They are comfortable, easy to put on, and save time while still looking put together and elegant! :) This shop is wonderful for building your own yukata and kimono looks, and shipping is quick! Highly recommended! :)
Beautiful material, excellent service! I've been buying with Sakura for a very long time and I've always been happy.
Dômo arigatô gozaimashita!
Please don't judge my kitsuke, its only an initial try-on to show so I'll post another when I'm actually dressed fully and better. It is just beautiful and they are my favorite market for all things Kimono and Yukata. I'm 154 cm tall and 115 lbs for comparison.
I'm 5 foot 6 inches tall and 195 pounds. This plus size yukata was actually big on me, but it worked just fine given how a kimono is worn.
There is ample ohashori to cover a taller person than me, and the over lap in left to right side was significant, so it would cover heavier people as well. My struggle is my big rear end and thighs causing kimono fit issues, and I had none with this.
Would recommend 100%.
In the photos my yukata and obi are a bit wrinkly from a car ride. I forgot to take a nice picture before the event I was attending, but at least I remembered to snap some after I got home.
This was my first time ordering from this shop, was looking to purchase several yukata as I want to start wearing them more regularly and wanted something more mature looking (I own several yukata from another seller that I also love, but the colors are too bright for everyday wear for me). Decided to go with mostly blue tones and patterns since that's my favorite. :) Ordered 9 deluxe yukata and 3 pretied obi to mix and match with (I know how to tie my own obi but pretied obi are so convenient for easy and quick dressing!) and WOW!! All of these yukata are absolutely stunning!! The colors are so bold and look even better in person! I can tell these are very high quality and well made, can't wait to start wearing them out and about! :) The obi are very good quality as well! Everything arrived very quickly, was surprised as I wasn't expecting them to arrive that soon! Absolutely wonderful experience, will definitely be returning for more yukata and kimono in the future! :)
I highly recommend the first kimono set for beginners like me. I bought this to attend the chrysanthemum festival (kikumatsuri) in Hasselt. This colour combination (which pops on the background of green and autumn red leaves) and the cranes (symbol of longevity and perseverance) are just what I needed. It feels like wearing art. I followed a tutorial to adjust the length of this huge kimono and tie the easiest obi knot possible, but it was a struggle for my clumsy and novice self (it was great fun to figure it out though!) I received praise from friends and strangers taking photographs at the festival, it felt very special. Initially I ambitiously wanted to put on a furisode, but I have to be realistic about how much I can spend, whether I can put on the outfit correctly, and whether I can preserve a silk furisode in my very humid place (I decided that I will save this ultimate kimono for my first trip to Japan some time in the future.) Their delivery service is fast and reliable. Thank you for making authentic kimono accessible to international customers like me!
Lovely quality and lovely worker with efficient communication. I’m so excited to wear it to my first festival!
I bought this furisode for my daughter. She is too little to wear it yet, but I'm stockpiling these beauties for her sweet sixteen. Every kimono I've purchased here is a work of art - I can't wait to see her in this one!
First I was Not Sure to buy a Yucatan, but I did it and it is Perfect. I am also a beginner, and Thats my First yukata ever and it’s absolut enough for beginners in my opinion.
When I Need another, I will buy it Here.
The Kimono is really nice and well made. And on top, the delivery was way quicker than expected. A pleasant surprise.
Best decision in a long time. Im 170cm tall and the kimono fits me perfectly. The fabric is high quality and soft on the skin. The colour is also exactly as per the pictures. 12 out of 10
The kimono was a perfect fit. The colors are amazing, and it is in near-mint condition. The Kimonos are always well-packed and folded to perfection, and shipping from Japan is very quick. Customer service is excellent - very dependable and accurate description of items. Thank you!
This has become my Go-To Yukata! It's perfectly-sized, super-comfortable, and has just the right amount of Everything that you might need to lounge about your house in, and/or maybe wear out in public, should you be so bold (I'm in the USA, so whenever I wear a Yukata in public, I get the "Nice Bathrobe" comments, unless I'm at the Japanese Garden). Personally, Im quite taken by the Pattern as well; it's Bold, but not Noisy/Loud, and looks even better when I pair it with my Red Kaku-Obi for a nice Contrast.
5 Stars out of 5, Would DEFINITELY Recommend to a Friend (and everyone else), Will DEFINITELY Shop again!
I wish this store to receive all of the Good Fortune in the world, as they have -in MY Eyes- most certainly Earned it!
Once again, the Bundle is Fantastic! The Kaku Obi has just the right amount of Stiffness to it - Easy to tie, but also unlikely to "collapse". The Setta are as comfortable as any other I've encountered, and look great!
I've never had a problem with ANYTHING I've bought here - EVERYTHING is Top-Quality, Reasonably Priced, and the Shipping Costs and Speed are beyond compare.

I was sure I was going to like it, but the moment I put the whole outfit on I was overcome with joy. It's extremely comfortable, everything fits perfectly and I just couldn't be happier. Definitely will recommend to anyone interested in wearing Japanese clothing.
