Yukata (if thats a pair of clothing)
Theres also this strap thing that I saw samurais wear to hold back their sleeves.
And those sandals they wear; the ones the women(like geishas wear) and the ones the guys usually where?

If you're an expert on Japanese culture and what not, can you leave your email address pleeease.

oh thats a kimono
i have learned that in our world history
hehhehehe.....
The word kimono simply means things to wear and is pronounced kee-mo-no. The plural of kimono is simply kimono. The kimono has had a long history in Japan and the kimono has changed over time to reflect the society and culture of that period.

Today, a Japanese woman usually owns only one kimono typically a furosode kimono which is worn for the coming of age ceremony on her 19th birthday. For weddings, the complete bridal kimono and kimono apparel is usually rented. Kimono are also very rarely worn as every day clothing anymore. Occasionally, if you go to a small rural town in Japan or one of small islands like Okinawa, you will see the traditional every day kimono worn by elders.
