The Way to Wear
Nagajuban is base of Kimono. We can see in the Eri, Sodeguchi and Sodefuri.
The important thing is to find perfect fitting Juban.
Juban’s length is about eighty percent of your height.
We make “Ohasyori”: (folded waist part of Kimono), but Juban doesn’t need one.
We put Haneri and Erishin on the Nagauban.
For the formal scene, all on them are white.
In contrast, we can wear whatever we want like denim cloth or animal patterns in daily life.
