Traditional Japanese Kimonos, in NYC?

Question

Does anyone know of a shop or a seamstress in New York City or the metro-area that sells and/or makes traditional Japanese kimonos?

By "metro" I mean the surrounding suburbs, or as far as Philedelphia to the south, Boston to the north or anywhere in Long Island.

Thanks

Answer 1

I'd try Ebay, first. And what kind are you talking about? There is the casual summer kimono called a Yukata usually made of cotton, or the dressier silk kimonos. Or the very, very, very expensive wedding kimonos. Those are longer, thicker, and hand embroidered.

Answer 2

I completely believe Japan Australia. Kimonos' can value £/$ a million,000's++++ no longer worth procuring a 'cheapo' degrading to one in all those perfect garment. 2d-hand Kimonos' regrettably sell way under the charges the ought to be. Who wears a Kimono these days different than the jap, *that's a so unhappy!* (<: *no longer the jap*

Answer 3

i know one but the prices are really high!
and you have to order it.
