Kimono (ki = "wear"; mono = "thing") is a traditional
garment in Japan since the Heian period. Kimonos are usually
made of silk. Kimonos are wrapped
around the body and secured by an obi
("sash"). Kimonos are mostly worn by women for special occasions. Men
wear it often at weddings
or during the tea
ceremony.
