Japanese Samurai Kimono

Question: Where can i find a tall kimono?

i want to know where i can find a samurai-like kimono that would fit me at 6'4" male. I know japanese arent as tall as westerners so i know its hard to find.

Answer: Something tells me you're going to have to buy one brand-new, and possibly also have it custom-made. I mean, there are tall Japanese guys, but 6'4" isn't exactly common in much of the Western world either, let alone Japan. If you want to try your luck with second-hand items you can look on Ichiroya, Yamatoku, Kimono Lily, and Ryu Japan. Bokunan-do sells new items. I know they custom-make women's kimono, so they might do it for men too. You can also look on the international section of Rakuten.

Question: What to wear to school dance!?!?!?!?!?

OK, well, its casual, but everyone always dresses up a bit. The rules are no pants/skirts/whatever above the knee. No spagheti straps. I'm really short, w/ blonde hair, and brown eyes. I know that I'm wearing darkwash jeans, i just need help on the top.A loose brown shirt, thin, confy, Matt says it looks good on me. A red kimono style shirt (makes busts pop) Blue half sleeves (comes to elbow) slightly baggy, (very bright blue, electric) or any other color. or style that you think wood look good on me. Ill look thru my wardrobe 4 similar things, but i cant go shopping, zdance iz on friday. thanks for your answers!
