Hello ! I was curious, I haven't been able to find a name for this specific decoration at the ends of furisode sleeves with the knots and tassels, do you have any idea what they're called or more info on them? (Your blog is a wonderful resource and gallery, thank you !)
Hi and thank you for your kind words <3
You're lucky, I've been through that specific rabbit hole before ;) You can find those past posts wondering about kamuro apprentices fashion here and here ;)
TLDR: I don't have a specific answer as they're refered by several names - generic terms sodekukuri/sodegukuri (sleeve tie) or sode no himo (sleeve "ribbon") being the most prevalent.

ok what is it about very small things that i know hardly anyone will be able to see that makes me go way way too far
this is the sickest mettaton design i've ever made. to see it this close up you have to zoom in 200% and the final product is probably gonna have a gaussian blur over it

Do you think you could share more child kimonos? Or do they tend to not have as detailed designs on them?
Hi :) It's true I don't post many children kimono here. It's mainly because:
Children kimono often have kids in them (duh xD), and tbh I am not super confortable sharing kids pictures on the net. Many Japanese people anonymize their private pictures, but still reposting kids pics truly feels like intruding their privacy. This leave mainly photoshoots as a source.
Children don't often wear kimono nowadays. You can sometimes catch cute jinbei/yukata with modern/novelty patterns during summertime. But most of the time, kimono are worn for formal event such as miyamairi and shichigosan and the patterns/styling are often super classical (and a bit meh to my taste :S).
Follow those links to get a better idea of the different looks 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 .
Kids' kimono materials and patterns can be as plain or as luscious as adult's ones. Main differences between adult vs kid kimono are some tailoring points :
the sleeves, especially tighter/rounder funazokosode or genrokukosode sleeves (which won't catch and tear easily, see shapes here),
the tsukehimo (sewn-on ties for easy dressing)
the various -age tucks, accomodating a kid's growth into an adult size kimono
I sometimes come across fun photoshoots, I'll try to look for some more :D In the meantime, enjoy those past notes 1 / 2 / 3 / 4
