What is modern kimono? <\/span><\/h2>\n
![\"Modern](\"https:\/\/www.wapluskyoto.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/image8.jpg\")
\nIn general, “modern kimono” refers to kimonos with modern patterns that were not found in older kimonos (classical patterns).<\/p>\nThe word “modern” has been used in Japan since the Meiji period, and was very popular from the end of the Taisho period to the early Showa period.
\nHowever, when it comes to modern kimono, there is no clear definition such as “kimono made after XX”.<\/p>\nA kimono that combines Western-style modern patterns with classic patterns is sometimes called a “retro-modern kimono.”<\/p>\n
Why is modern kimono so popular? <\/span><\/h2>\n
So, why is the modern kimono so popular even in the Reiwa era?

\n\u25cfLace gloves

\n\u25cfLace fan
\n\u25cfLace hairpin (hair ornament)
\n

Use just a few pearl accessories for an elegant look, and use a lot for a gorgeous look.
\nEarrings and hair accessories are easy to incorporate.
\nFor those who want to enjoy kimono-like fashion, we recommend matching pearls to the obijime or obidome.<\/p>\nFur accessories<\/span><\/h3>\n
Fur accessories give the wearer a luxurious and mature image.
\nIn addition to an expensive fur bag, adding a fur scrunchie to your hair or wrist can change your look.<\/p>\nLeather accessories<\/span><\/h3>\n

The obi-dome of a kimono is a part where you can easily show off your individuality.

\n\u3000<\/p>\nValletta<\/span><\/h3>\n
In recent years, barrettes have become popular again among fashionable people.
\nThey come in gold\/silver, tortoiseshell, ribbon\/fur styles, etc., and are easy to match with any kimono or hairstyle.<\/p>\nHeadband<\/span><\/h3>\n

\nHeadbands are famous items that add expression not only to the front of your face, but also to the side of your face!
\nIt is recommended not only for simple bun hairstyles, but also for those who have short hair and find it difficult to create elaborate arrangements.<\/p>\nRibbon\/flower<\/span><\/h3>\n
Hair ornaments with ribbons and flower motifs will enhance your stylish mood.
\nIf you use points at the top of your hairstyle, it will balance out the kimono style, which tends to be heavier towards the bottom.<\/p>\nBeret<\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Beret\"](\"https:\/\/www.wapluskyoto.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/SnapCrab_NoName_2022-2-17_15-2-15_No-00.png\")
\nThis retro and stylish beret goes perfectly with your kimono coordination.
\nUsing a beret that matches the color of the obi and collar creates a cohesive look.<\/p>\nChignon\/Dumpling<\/span><\/h3>\n
The chignon\/bun style is a classic kimono style, but the impression is completely different depending on whether it is “loosely tied up” or “tied up tightly without any hairs at the back”.
\nEven when making a loose bun, the key is to use spray or wax to hold it together so it doesn’t fall apart when you move.<\/p>\nTwisted knot\/braiding<\/span><\/h3>\n
Twisting or braiding it will instantly make you look modern and fashionable!
\nIf you combine it with the barrettes and headbands we’ve introduced so far, you’ll have a wide variety of expressions.<\/p>\nString ponytail<\/span><\/h3>\n
A ponytail with a string creates a natural look that doesn’t look like you’ve tried too hard.
\nTry using leather laces or lace laces for a sophisticated look.<\/p>\nCandy hair<\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Candy](\"https:\/\/www.wapluskyoto.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/SnapCrab_NoName_2022-2-17_14-58-40_No-00.png\")
