Question: How could I make a kimono like this?

I wanted to make a normal kimono, but also one kinda like that one in Party City, just out of good fabric. Could someone give me specific directions or advise?http://www.partycity.com/product/costumes+%26+accessories/teen+girls/see+all/lovely+lolita+costume+teen.do?sortby=bestSellers

Answer: A normal kimono isn't going to come out looking anything like that, and neither is a high-quality Wa-Lolita outfit. For a normal kimono there are some instructions online for making yukata that could probably also be used for more formal, unlined kimono (e.g. anything worn from late spring to early fall). You can find them easily enough through Google. I've also heard good things about the pattern from Folkwear. For a Wa-Lolita outfit you might want to hang around some Lolita forums and communities and ask if anyone there has specific information on making Wa-Lolita outfits, including things like patterns and good fabric suggestions.
