A named T-shaped Japanese garment of later dress and rite. Not a kesa, not ihram, and not kente as a flatten.

Shinto

  • Kimono is historically related to Silk.

    Chamberlain’s Dress / Kimono notes seat the T-shaped Japanese robe as the ordinary garment, commonly silk for better wear — robe speech, not a Western dress and not an obi sash alone.
