These services are for dressing only. Kimono rental is not included unless separately arranged; photography is not included.
Thoughtful technique. Comfortable dressing.
Akane studied kimono dressing at Kyoto Kimono Gakuin Kyoto Honko (京都きもの学院京都本校). Her approach incorporates the techniques of Emondo (衣紋道), guided by the motto 「早く、楽に、美しく」— dressing with speed, comfort, and beauty.
Many clients have praised the comfort of her dressing, along with its beautiful finish.
