5.0 out of 5 stars
Valuable resource for kimono research,
By KimonoMomo (San Francisco, California, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When Art Became Fashion: Kosode in Edo-Period Japan (Paperback)
I checked this out from the library and after I'd read two pages I knew I needed a copy for myself. I am very pleased to add this book to my own personal library, as it is full of well-researched information about kimono and the evolution of kimono fashion in Japanese history.
A multitude of full color plates, pages of useful footnotes and references and even sturdy paper (in both paperback and hardback editions) make this a worthy coffee table book as much as a useful resource that I will read again and again.

By K. Porter "Never take life too seriously, you... (Ohio United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: When Art Became Fashion: Kosode in Edo-Period Japan (Paperback)
If you are interested in kimono: art, culture, and history ...THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU! This book is a gem of a resource for beginner and advanced readers alike. The book has many colorful historical kimono documented in photos, an outstanding and detailed glossary of terms, ample history, ample art, and more! I wish I had this book sooner as it is now the single most important book in my collection! |
