Oh no! My undergarment is sticking out from my sleeve!!
Hello, I'm Yukiwa!
When enjoying recycled kimonos or kimonos that have been given to you,
"Oh no! My juban is sticking out from under my kimono!!"
Have you ever experienced something like this?
What is the problem with undergarments sticking out from under kimonos?
Yes, that's exactly what it's like.
It's not like I can't wear it as is, but I'd like to wear it neatly and cleanly if possible.
Easy fix with a safety pin!
In such cases
"Help! Safety pin!" (Please read it like Anpanman lol)
If the sleeves are too wide, just pinch them together in the middle and quickly secure them with a safety pin.
(Sorry, I couldn't take a good photo.
The vertical crease is the extension from the shoulder, which will become the top of the sleeve.
I hope you understand...)
An even safer way
If you are worried about the safety pin getting caught, you can just sew a little bit around the shoulder.
If your shoulders are too wide, pinch them in the middle.
A little trick to reduce stress
If this alone can relieve some of your minor frustrations, it's worth a try!
Once you know how to adjust the sleeve length, your choice of kimono will change.
Once you know that you can adjust the sleeve length slightly, you can choose your nagajuban based on the length of the kimono.
