I love how body-positive Kimono Kitsune is! I never thought I could wear kimono because I’m a big and curvy girl, but Traeonna showed me new styles that make my body look amazing! Thank you for helping me find MY way of wearing kimono!
Traeonna is such a patient instructor. I’m not the easiest of people to teach. I can’t believe I am able to finally able to dress in yukata all by myself! Thank you so much!

I attended a class at an anime con to learn more about kimono. I was amazed at how much information there was in Kimono Foundations. I can’t wait to start my kimono-wearing journey now!
Thank you so much for all your help and for the beautiful packaging. You have a wealth of knowledge and I look forward to buying and learn more.
What a treasure to find such high quality Japanese clothing for all. I will be a regular customer and look forward to more men's clothing.
I needed a specific piece to add to my bridal kimono. I looked all over the internet and couldn't find what I was looking for. Finally I came across this site and found exactly what I needed! And it was decently priced too! The customer service is excellent and I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for Japanese apparel and accessories.
The merchandise is beautiful and well made. I'm excited about my next purchase.
