Kimono Rental

If you think tying a kimono the right way is tough, you're quite right. Luckily, the helpful souls at the Kyoto Samurai House are about to show you how to do it. Forget the too-tight belts and suffocating silks; they'll tie it on quickly and comfortably over your clothes. Not only will you look the part in less than three minutes (yes, really!), you can pose for photos in it, too. Swinging sleeves or narrow ones? Flowery print or plain elegance? You decide!
