Kyoto Kashikimono, operated by Kyoei Co., Ltd. (Ukyo Ward, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture; CEO: Wu Yue), has launched a new lineup for its online kimono rental service ahead of the 2026 summer yukata season. The service now offers three new types: 'single-piece yukata,' 'two-piece yukata,' and 'one-piece dress yukata.'

In recent years, opportunities to enjoy wearing yukata—such as summer festivals, fireworks displays, and sightseeing trips—have increased. However, many people still feel hesitant due to concerns like 'dressing seems difficult,' 'I'm not sure I can put it on myself,' or 'it's uncomfortable to wear for long periods.'

This new lineup responds directly to such feedback by offering three distinct yukata styles tailored to different levels of dressing experience and usage scenarios. The goal is to create an environment where more people can enjoy wearing yukata with ease.

Three Yukata Styles That Solve Dressing Challenges

- Single-Piece Yukata

Ideal for those who want to enjoy the authentic beauty of traditional yukata. This style preserves the classic aesthetic, while the included children's obi (hakarigawa) is designed to be beginner-friendly.

- Two-Piece Yukata

Features a top-and-bottom separated design that simplifies the dressing process. This style allows wearers to easily achieve an elegant yukata look while maintaining comfort and freedom of movement.

- One-Piece Dress Yukata

Designed for ultimate convenience, this style can be worn just like Western clothing. It's perfect for first-time yukata wearers or those who want to enjoy traditional attire casually during travel or at events.

Removing the Barrier of 'I Want to Wear It, But It's Hard'

Yukata is one of Japan's iconic summer traditions. Yet, many miss out on the experience due to the complexity of dressing and preparation.

Kyoto Kashikimono aims to change that by offering a rental service that allows anyone—regardless of prior knowledge or experience—to easily enjoy wearing yukata.

Whether it's fireworks festivals, summer matsuri, travel, or sightseeing, customers can now choose a yukata style that suits their needs and enjoy the freedom of summer fashion.
