Kimono have a T-shaped, straight-line fit. Kimono are wrapped around the body, always with the left side over the right and are secured by a sash called an obi, which is tied at the back, A woman's kimono is traditionally very long as the additional length allows for the tuck that can be seen under the obi or obijime(sash), which is used to adjust the kimono to the wearer.
The Furisode Kimono literally translates as swinging sleeves. The Furisode is distinguished by its long swinging sleeves which usually measure between 85cm to 114 cm. Furisode, like other formal kimono, are mostly made from silk and are decorated in bright colors and elaborate patterns. Before WWII, only young unmarried women wore Furisode, in the present day, however, Furisode are by default considered to be formalwear and are generally worn for formal social functions such as tea ceremonies, weddings, and Coming of Age Day.
