Wedding Kimono (Uchikake)
Uchikake, or wedding kimono, are designed to be magnificent. Meticulously hand-sewn, the skills of the weaver and embroiderer are displayed to their utmost in the opulent fabrics, and the result is a vision of beauty and grandeur that is hard to match in any other country.
When worn with a simple white wedding dress, they make a magnificent robe, trailing behind the bride somewhat like a lace train on a Western wedding gown, and certainly the bride is never outshone! Perfect for a Winter or early Spring wedding, these robes will make your wedding photos unforgettable. I can also supply the correct clothing for the groom, with an advice service on how it is meant to be worn.
Of course, uchikake also make exquisite wall displays, hung on a blank wall in a Japanese or Oriental interior.
