Junihitoe demonstration
















The jūnihitoe (十二単衣) is an extremely elegant and highly complex kimono that was only worn by court-ladies in Japan. Literally translated, it means "twelve-layer robe".
The jūnihitoe started to appear around the 10th century during the Heian Era. The various layers are silk garments.
The total weight could add up to 20 kilograms.
