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

Explored Asakusa and Senso-ji Temple in a Kimono!

Reviewed by: Anna

Newfound respect for the ladies who had to wear kimonos on a daily basis back in the day! I didn't know the prep was so tedious. It was both surprisingly fun and tiring to walk in a kimono. We ate street food, shopped around Orange St and walked to Senso-ji Temple while we were wearing them. We were lucky that the place where we rented it from had actual silk kimonos instead of polyester because it was a very hot Sunday afternoon. Would recommend this experience to first time Tokyo visitors!

I was the only guy in the room! Why did it felt like I'm the only one who tried to wear it that day, haha! But I guess it's not a bad thing? :D Wearing the Kimono in public feels a little bit awkward at first, but as we go on, it feels fine. Maybe one of the most unforgettable experiences I had :)

Kimono Dress-up

Reviewed by: Sheila

I didn't enjoy this tour. I didn't expect that I had to strip off my clothes in a space (with just a cloth as a door) with other strangers. Wearing the kimono was uncomfortable. It was heavy and complicated to wear (and take off). That particular day was also hot, so I was all sweaty and uneasy while walking outside. Good thing about this tour was the friendly staff at the Sakura Photo Studio.

It was a great experience, my mum loved it!! I am glad our booking was early as by the time we came back it was a little but hectic. Also, they need to put signs out or something more visual out so people can find the shop. We caught a cab, as we were running late, but if we caught public transport we would be really lost.

The hospitality for foreigners is definitely the Kimono Experience ;) 外国人のおもてなしは、やっぱりKimono Experience ;)

Reviewed by: Patchi

I made a reservation for a kimono experience that was a must-do for my relatives visiting Japan for the first time from the UK. On the day of the experience, I requested a last-minute change to the reservation time, and they were very flexible in accommodating me, which was a great help. It was quite crowded due to Golden Week, but the staff were efficient, and the dressing and hair styling were completed without much waiting.

Even with the most basic plan, there were more kimono options to choose from than I expected, so you’re sure to find a favorite. My relative chose a white kimono with floral patterns. While exploring Asakusa, many people complimented her with "cute!" and "Awesome!", and she seemed very happy.

I’m really glad that my important relative enjoyed it so much. If there’s another opportunity, I would love to do this again.

UKから親戚が初来日ということで、絶対に外せない着物体験を予約。当日急遽予約時間の変更をお願いしましたが、フレキシブルに対応いただきとても助かりました。GWのためかなり混みあっていましたが、スタッフの皆さん手際がよく、さほど待つこともなく着付け・ヘアメイクが終了。
一番安いベーシックプランでも思ったより選べる着物が多く、お気に入りの一枚がきっと見つかるでしょう。親戚は白色×花柄を選択。浅草散策では色々な方に「かわいい！」「Awesome!」と声をかけてもらえ、嬉しそうでした。
大切な親戚にとても喜んでもらえて本当に良かったです。また機会がありましたら宜しくお願いします。

I received various advice in a private atmosphere. プライベートな雰囲気で、いろいろアドバイスしてもらえました。

Reviewed by: レーペル

I applied to wear a yukata for just one day on my day off. The location wasn't right in the heart of Asakusa, but it was a very nice place that was quiet and calm. I was able to take my time choosing without the hustle and bustle of other customers, which was really great for me.

The owner was very knowledgeable about traditional Japanese clothing and provided a lot of advice on how to choose a yukata and the proper etiquette. They initially selected a few pieces for me, and I was surprised that all of them suited me so well. I always have concerns about whether I'm making a seasonal or inappropriate choice with traditional clothing, but I felt reassured knowing the owner was there to help me with that.

Unfortunately, due to heavy rain, I couldn't wear it for the planned time, but I would definitely like to request this again next time.

休日に1日だけ浴衣を着たいと思って申し込みました。
場所は浅草のど真ん中ではないのですが、その分静かで落ち着いた場所にある、とっても雰囲気がいいところでした。他のお客さんでガヤガヤせず、ゆっくり選べたので自分にはすごく良かったです。

オーナーさんはとても和装にお詳しく、浴衣の選び方からマナーまで、いろいろ相談にのって頂きました。最初に数点セレクトしていただいたのですが、どれも自分に合っていて驚きました。和装は「季節外れや場違いなセレクトをしてないだろうか？」という不安がいつもあるのですが、そこもオーナーさんにちゃんと見てもらえたので安心でした。

残念ながら大雨で予定時間まで着られなかったのですが、次もまたお願いしたいと思いました。

I think it's better to choose from a variety of patterns rather than owning a kimono myself.

For my stroll in Asakusa, I chose a kimono that reflects the Edo period. One concern with kimonos is the color coordination with the obi and accessories, but I felt at ease knowing I could receive professional advice on this. The advice was not restrictive, as in "it has to be this or that," but rather very flexible, allowing me to choose what I like in my own way. I will definitely use this service again for formal lunches and such. Thank you very much.

We requested an outdoor photo shoot in Asakusa with a four-year-old girl in a furisode and Shichi-Go-San formal attire. Fortunately, the weather was great on the day of the shoot. Although the child's whims caused the session to run longer than expected, the shop was accommodating and stayed with us until the end of the shoot, which was a great help. There was also a discount for the rickshaw, which we used for the photo shoot. Everyone, from the hairstylist to the photographer and the rickshaw puller, was fluent in English, which was very helpful. The photos are not ready yet, but I am looking forward to them. I would definitely use their services again if the opportunity arises.

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

So much fun!

Reviewed by: Roxie

I scheduled our appointment for the very first of the day and was so glad that I did. We were the only ones there and had our pick of so many kimonos that I almost couldn't decide which one to wear. When we came back to return our kimonos, the studio was full with three or four people. The woman who runs the place speaks good english and was so sweet and delightful. She made the whole experience of picking out our kimonos and dressing so much fun. The best part was getting to walk around Tokyo in our kimonos. At first we were a little anxious, because we seemed to be getting a lot of looks. The Japanese people seemed to get a kick out of seeing foreigners dressed in kimonos as they'd mostly smile and do the little nod bow thing. We walked from the studio to Nakamise shopping street and Sensoji shrine. By the time we'd gotten through those two sight seeing places we started to see a lot of other people dressed in kimonos. As we saw the other people in kimonos, I realized how much nicer the Sakura studio dressing experience was than all the others as we looked way better than everyone else we saw. My husband had the kimono top with the hakama pants on and the kimono jacket over top. The other men I saw had just the kimono and jacket, no pants. It could have been a choice on their part, I'm not sure, but I thought the pants looked better. My obi was an actual obi that the woman tied into a really cool knot and added a second accent pre-tied knot that made it look really cool. The other women I saw walking around had only a pretty poor looking pre-tied obi on. We also got to pick out Zori sandals and a kimono purse to go with our kimonos. I was also surprised at how warm the whole getup was. It was around 50 degrees outside the whole day but I wasn't cold at all, and I usually get cold very easily. Overall, I would recommend this activity, and I would definitely recommend the Sakura Studio.

A valuable trip for my mother and grandmother with a kimono experience for three generations. 3世代で着物体験★母・祖母の貴重な旅行となりました

Reviewed by: さつまっころ

I made a reservation for a special experience because my mother and grandmother were visiting my daughter (me) for the first time from Kyushu.

I hadn't told my grandmother where we were going, so when we arrived at the studio, she almost tried to run away, and I apologize for the trouble. However, the staff kindly helped her change while complimenting her, and she was able to change clothes safely.

The four of us, three generations plus the main character, got to wear kimonos, and we also requested the optional photography on-site (4,000 yen for one photo per group).

Since it's not often that people in their 60s and 90s wear bright patterns, it seemed to be a refreshing experience for them, and both were very happy, looking at the photos at home.

When we come to Tokyo again, we would love to visit again. Thank you for your kindness!

A Unique Experience

Reviewed by: Amanda F.

My wife and I did this experience together. The dressing studio is small and bustling, and being able to experience the art of formal kimono dressing was something we will never forget. Although we were the only foreigners there, suggesting this place does a robust local business, the English-speaking assistant was very accommodating. We were given a variety of beautiful kimonos to choose from, and ended up adding on a photo shoot package at the last minute, which they were great about. I have already recommended this experience to a friend who is traveling to Tokyo in a couple weeks.

10/10, Would Do Again

Reviewed by: Hannah

I brought my family to Asakusa, solely to participate in this activity. At first, they were very apphrehensive, but after donning the kimonos with the help and reassurances of the staff, my parents enjoyed this as much as I, a young adult, did!
If you're looking for a fun family activity, or an activity that allows you to dress up and admire the beauty of Japan's reach history, then this is the one for you! The staff are super duper helpful, and assisted us in finding the best places to photograph our outing! The staff also pointed us to Kaminarimon, a Japanese gate whose shopping street leads you directly to Senso-ji, Asakusa's most famous temple!
My only regret is that the selection of kimonos mostly consists of flower themed fabric; there were little to none featuring animals such as skylarks, koi, or even just trees and branches. But other than that, this experience was well worth it!

Kimono Rental and Kimono Dressing in Nihonbashi

Kimono Rental With my Thai Girlfriend

Reviewed by: Yuutaro

In April, my Thai girlfriend and I went together for this kimono rental experience. Unfortunately, it was a little rainy outside, but the meeting place for the activity was inside and the shop had a classy feel. The person who helped us put on the kimono spoke English, and I noticed a lot of non-Japanese customers. My girlfriend can't speak any Japanese, so this was really helpful for us.

We went to wear kimono together, and even as a guy, I thought it was really fun. More than that, my girlfriend was happy and that was the best. It seems like many people have an interest in Japanese kimono, so if you have friends from overseas, you should definitely bring them to do this.

Since you can wear the kimonos for the whole day (until 6pm), we got on the train and headed for Asakusa. It was kind of funny since so many travelers were staring at us. We had a lot of people ask to take pictures with us. It felt like we were famous.

After that, we wandered around Tokyo Skytree, Ginza and the Imperial palace, wearing the kimono to our heart's content! I definitely recommend this to travelers. I really enjoyed this tour.

You should do it!

Reviewed by: HappyHawaiian

Wear a real kimono? Check that off the bucket list and preserve those memories in one easy experience. The studio is conveniently located near to Meguro station, within walking distance, even for a two and three year old. The two owners are fluent in English and were EXCELLENT in helping to prepare and photograph my rambunctious toddlers...not an easy feat! Our family looked GREAT and the pictures are fantastic!

My only caution is that although the description reads "40 cuts", you actually only receive your top two choices and need to pay more in order to have all of your pics put onto a cd. It was still a reasonable price, it's just that we weren't expecting additional costs prior to arriving, although it was made clear to us at the beginning of the session.

All in all, the ladies went above and beyond to give us a wonderful family experience.

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!

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."
