2. The kimono is the traditional dress of Japan, and it is worn nowadays on formal
occasions. It is sometimes accused of being an impractical form of dress, but it
has the advantage of giving the wearer a graceful and elegant deportment.
There are various different types of kimono for use at different times and on
different occasions. Women's kimono include the furisodé and tomesodé for
formal wear, the hômongi for paying calls, the tsukesagé, and
the komon. Men's kimono include the montsuki hakama for ceremonial
occasions and the haori for going out visiting. There is also the yukata, worn
by both men and women as informal dress at home, in ryokan or for attending
local festivals.
