Furisode is a traditional Japanese kimono characterized by its long, flowing sleeves, which can reach up to 114 centimeters. Typically worn by young, unmarried women, it is often made from vibrant fabrics and adorned with intricate patterns. The style is particularly popular during special occasions such as Seijin Shiki (Coming of Age Day) and weddings.
The Furisode is usually paired with an obi, a wide belt that secures the kimono. The garment is often layered with other accessories, including obijime (decorative cords) and obiage (obi scarves), to enhance its elegance. Wearing a Furisode is a significant cultural expression in Japan, symbolizing youth and beauty.
