Wear Kimono in Asakusa with a Rental Dress Up Experience in Tokyo

Wonderful

Reviewed by: Jelena

I went here for a kimono dressup and I selected the option for a make-up session as well. The ladies were welcoming and very friendly. They had a lot of kimono's to choose from, and the kimono's they had were beautiful. The make-up and hair was also beautifully done (using brands such as MAC!).
I recommend this to anyone that wishes to dress up in a kimono and walk around beautiful Tokyo. There are Nice parks and sights closeby by which lovely pictures can be taken!

Kimono Rental and Photo Shoot

My son, nephew, and I did the kimono plan and photo shoot around Asakusa in early June 2016. The pictures were fantastic! The whole experience was the highlight of our trip in Japan. I’m looking forward to returning with my daughter and doing this again!

Mother/daughter experience

Reviewed by: Penny

I did this with my 12y.o daughter. It was a great experience. Even though we don't speak Japanese, the ladies looked after us and did our hair & makeup as well as dressed us. They were very friendly and polite. The dressing up was just as much fun as the walking about. We only lasted 90 mins in costume as it was a hot sultry day and a festival was on so very crowded when we walked to the temple.

Reviewed by: Sejung, Hwang

I have been there with my mom and staffs were super kind. This studio has various kimonos and flowers. My mother was touched by delicate caring. When we put on kimono, they cared so much and it was all authentic and traditional way. They were very considerate.
When we went outside, so many people asked us to take photos. It was one of my happy memory. Thank you very much and we will come back to you with my sister! :)

Kimono Rental at Sakura Photo Studio

Reviewed by: Yolette

Short review: BOOK IT NOW! Do not hesitate and just do it!

Detailed review:
My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time! We got to choose from a huge collection of kimonos (seemed like 100+ styles for women). The ladies spoke English decently and put in a lot of effort to putting on my kimono. I am on the bustier side (34Ds) and after teasing that they were "too big", the lady wrapped them up tightly and made me feel and look beautiful (so don't be worried, busty ladies!).

I didn't have a choice on hairstyle (or I wasn't asked what I wanted). I just let the lady do what she felt was best. After doing my hair, I got to choose a hair piece from the "free" collection or fancier ones for an extra 500 yen.

We then roamed Asakusa and felt like celebrities! Everyone were taking pictures of us and with us. One thing I regret forgetting to do was buying an umbrella to look even more the part, but we still had a blast!

I definitely recommend this to everyone! Try to go right when they open so you have the first pick for kimonos!

Holiday Highlight ホリデーハイライト

Reviewed by: ダフ由貴子

I wore a kimono with three foreigners from Australia, making it four of us in total. While walking around the city, I noticed other people in kimonos, but something was different! The kimonos from Sakura Photo Studio were incredibly luxurious compared to others! Many people complimented us, saying "beautiful!", "cool!", and "cute!". We were even asked, "Did you go to a wedding?" because we were dressed so elegantly. When I showed the photos to my friends, they praised me, saying, "You really got to wear a nice kimono." During this trip, we also visited Disneyland and Odaiba, but all three of us agreed that "the day we wore kimonos was the highlight of the holiday." Next time I bring foreigners with me, I plan to rely on Sakura Photo Studio again.

オーストラリアから外人3人を連れて、私を含め4人で着物を着ました。
街中を歩いていると、他にも着物を着た人々を見かけたのですが、何かが違う！
サクラフォトスタジオさんの着物は他と比べて、とっても豪華！
色々な人に「きれい！」「かっこいー！」「かわいい」と言われました。
「結婚式にでも行ったの？」と聞かれるくらい、本当に豪華に着つけしてもらいました。
友達にも写真を見せたら、「すごくちゃんとした着物を着せてもらったんだね。」と
大好評。
今回の旅行ではディズニーランドやお台場などにも行ったのですが、3人とも「着物を着た日がホリデーのハイライトだった」と大満足。
次回また外人を連れて行くときは、サクラフォトさんにお世話になるつもりです。

We arrived to a room full of other customers and it felt a little cramped and rushed at first, however the workers were attentive and meticulous with the kimono dressing. The overall experience was great and is a must for a first timer.

My friend and I wanted to wear kimono and just got the day rental, with the first appointment at 930am. Being able to wear the kimono for the whole day in Tokyo was definitely worth the price. They do your hair and we loved our hairstyles! The quality of the materials were also much nicer than some of the rentals we saw people walking around in.

Amazing Must Do Experience in Asakusa!

Reviewed by: Maiko

I could not have asked for a better way to spend my vacation day in Asakusa than being able to roam around with a Kimono. The moment I entered their office, I was greeted immediately by the ladies there, and I can attest that they are all professionals. There's an array of kimonos and hakamas to choose from, and it only took less than 30 minutes for them to dress me. For women, they even fix your hair for you. When I posted up my pictures, all of my friends who visited Japan before were jealous that I got to experience this. This is definitely another way to immerse yourself in the culture, and a great way to spend your visit in Japan.

Thank you to the ladies for being so dandy! You will be pleased to know that I recommended you to all of my friends and family.

We love sakura studio as their provide fast and efficient service from the kimono choosing process and hair do. Some how just a minor irritation when its get too crowded in the shop. There is no personal room/separate room for gents or ladies as well as locker to put your valuable stuff. Its kinda bit of discomfort when other guy looking at you dressing up. Make sure to wear not see through clothing for your inner because you need to wear your kimono in-front of others. Overall, it can be improve in future and the host is great in many languages!

Reviewed by: Doc Nice

I've always wondered how it felt like to wear a Kimono. I never knew how elaborate it is to wear it, until I tried it. It was so beautiful... I was carefully dressed up from head to foot by three people, as if I was a VIP. Their efforts paid off since many strangers praised how I looked.Walking around wearing the Kimono was an experience I'll never forget. In fact, I will do it again if I will have the chance to go back to Japan.

Reviewed by: Momotaro

A German and a Swiss couple who are friends of mine are coming to Tokyo, and I thought a typical bus tour would be boring, so I arranged this kimono experience through an online search. I kept it a secret from my friends until we entered the shop, which made it a surprise, and they were super excited as soon as we walked in. The staff were very proficient in English and Korean, and they were efficient and kind, helping with the kimono dressing and styling the women's hair, which made my friends very happy. After getting dressed in the kimono, we quickly headed to Senso-ji and Nakamise, where we were approached by various other foreign and Japanese tourists, making us feel like little stars, which brought even more joy. We took lots of commemorative photos with Senso-ji in the background, and my friends said it became an unforgettable memory. This is definitely the best "omotenashi" for guiding friends from abroad in Tokyo, and I highly recommend Sakura Photo Studio.

友人のドイツ人とスイス人のカップルが東京に来るというので、月並みなはとバスツアーなどの観光ではつまらないと思い、ネット検索でこの着物体験をアレンジ。

浅草寺をバックにたくさんの記念写真をとって、「忘れられない思い出になった」と友人たちはとても喜んでくれました。

This is the only place we found offer Kimono, not simple summer clothing in Tokyo. The selection is very broad in all kinds of colors. The dressing service and over experience is wonderful. The photographer is nice too. It is important to keep in mind that the photography fee is depending on number of people in the group. So since we have 3 people, we need to pay 15,000 JPN Yen for hiring the photographer.

I used this plan to hang out with my friends on a holiday!

I wanted to spend a different kind of holiday than usual, so I decided to use this plan.

There was a wide variety of kimono styles, and I happily consulted with other customers there to choose one. The dressing and hair setup were done very efficiently in about 30 minutes per person.

After putting on the kimono, we thoroughly enjoyed Asakusa by visiting Senso-ji Temple, Tokyo Skytree, Sumida Aquarium, and having tea at Angelus! It was fun to stroll around Asakusa with a fresh feeling.

I heard they can also accommodate English and Korean, so it might be nice to bring foreign friends and treat them! I want to invite my friends again and use this plan in summer with yukata!

休日お友達と遊ぶのに利用しました！

なんだかいつもとは違う休日を過ごしたくてこのプランを利用することに。

着物の種類はとても豊富で、その場にいた他のお客さんとも和気あいあいと相談しながら決めました。着付けとヘアセットはひとり30分程度でとても手際よく着付けてくださいました。

着物を着てからは、浅草寺、スカイツリー、すみだ水族館、アンヂェラスでお茶と、浅草をたーくさん堪能してきました！
新鮮な気持ちで浅草を散歩できて楽しかったです。
英語、韓国語も対応可能だそうなので、外国のお友達を連れていっておもてなししてもいいかもしれません！

Sometimes, a stroll in Asakusa in a kimono. たまには着物で浅草さんぽ

Reviewed by: くもじい

While reading a novel set in Edo, I really wanted to wear a kimono and walk around the downtown area, so I made a reservation here. The studio had many international customers, including people from Taiwan and Thailand.

Although the studio isn't very large, there are plenty of kimonos to choose from, to the point where I was almost overwhelmed. The staff provided great advice to help me quickly decide on hair accessories and an obi. The fitting was speedy yet thorough, with just the right amount of tightness so that it wasn't uncomfortable to walk. The hairstyling was simple but cute, with lovely braids.

This time, I decided to add the photo shoot option. We started the shoot by walking from the studio to Senso-ji Temple. The photographer was very friendly and shared a lot of information about Asakusa, almost like a guide. My husband, slightly nervous in his hakama, and I, feeling a bit shy in my kimono, were able to enjoy a relaxed atmosphere thanks to the pleasant conversation.

There were New Year's decorations, creating a unique atmosphere in Asakusa during the year-end and New Year period. I wondered if there were couples like us in the Edo period as we enjoyed the hour-long photo shoot.

Even without the photo shoot, I think the price is a great deal for kimono rental with hairstyling, allowing you to wear it until the evening. It would be nice to see more variety in men's kimonos as well.

江戸が舞台の小説を読んでいたらどうしても着物を着て下町の街を歩いてみたくなりこちらを予約してみました。
スタジオには海外のお客さんも沢山来ており、台湾とタイの方もいました。
そこまで広くないスタジオですが、十分に選べるだけの着物があり、逆に迷って決められないくらい。髪飾りも帯も、ぱぱっと決められるようスタジオの方がいい具合にアドバイスをくれます。
着付けはスピーディですがしっかりとしてました。歩いていても苦しくないほどよい締め具合、ヘアセットも簡単ですがかわいく編み込んでくれました。
今回は思い切って写真撮影のオプションを付けました。スタジオから浅草寺へ歩いて撮影開始。カメラマンさんだけど、浅草について沢山お話をしてくれてまるでガイドさんみたいな方でした。袴姿にやや緊張気味の夫と、着物でちょっと恥ずかしい私でしたが、お陰で楽しいおしゃべりに和んだ雰囲気で撮影できましたよ。
ちょうどお正月の飾りがあり年末年始の独特な雰囲気の浅草。江戸の時代にもこんな夫婦がいたのかな、なんて思いにふけりながら、1時間ほどの撮影を楽しみました。
写真撮影なしでも、着物レンタルにヘアセットもついて、夕方まで着て過ごせてこの値段はお得だと思います。男性の着物ももっと種類があると嬉しいですね。

It's that time of year again! I fully enjoyed Kimono Day in Asakusa. 恒例！年末の着物Day　浅草満喫しました。

Reviewed by: ライチョウ

Every year, I enjoy wearing a kimono at the end of December. This year, I used Kim's Sakura Photo Studio again. As always, the dressing time was incredibly quick! There were two of us, and the total dressing time was about 30 minutes, so it went by in no time with two staff members assisting us. The variety of kimonos in terms of colors and patterns was abundant, even more so than last year. I chose a somewhat subdued colored kimono with a flashy obi, accented with pink. We entered the studio at 10:30, and our free time started at 11:00.

First, we filled up at a sushi restaurant where the tuna is cheap and delicious, then we enjoyed the retro atmosphere and Dutch coffee (cold brew coffee) at the long-established café Angelus, which opened in 1946. Finally, we had a great time at the Asakusa Engei Hall enjoying a variety show. The afternoon show at Asakusa Engei Hall ends at 4:10 PM, so if we listen until the end and return to the studio, we can easily make it back by the kimono return time of 5 PM.

I rarely have the opportunity to wear a kimono in my daily life, but it’s a nice change of pace. With this service, there's no need to buy a kimono myself, and I can enjoy various styles, so I think it would be fun to invite my close friends for a kimono girls' gathering in Asakusa.

毎年、12月末に着物を着て楽しんでいます。今年も金さんのサクラフォトスタジオを利用しました。相変わらずの迅速な着付けタイム！2人参加でしたが、着付けの所要時間はあわせて約30分程、2名で対応していただけるのであっという間です。着物の種類も色、柄ともに品揃えが多く、昨年よりも充実していました。ちょっと地味目の色の着物に、派手めの帯、アクセントにはピンクであわせていただきました。10:30にスタジオに入り、11:00から自由行動スタートです。

まずは、まぐろが安くて美味しいお鮨やさんで腹ごしらえ、その後、昭和21年開業の老舗喫茶店アンヂェラスでレトロな雰囲気とダッチコーヒー(水出しアイスコーヒー)を味わい最後は、浅草演芸ホールで寄席を楽しみました。浅草演芸ホールの昼の部は終了が午後4時10分、最後まで聞いてからスタジオに戻れば着物の返却時間の17時には余裕で間に合います。

着物を着る機会が普段ではめったにありませんが、気分転換にもなってなかなかいいものです。このサービスなら自分で着物を買う必要もなく、色々なパターンのものが楽しめるので仲良しの友達を誘って、着物浅草女子会なんてやってみてもいいなと思います。
