Wearing a kimono with a bodycon dress makes this outfit more feminine and elegant. Floral kimonos work best for casual wear while solid colours work for formal wear. When pairing these two together, make sure the prints don’t clash with one another to avoid making a huge fashion mistake. If you’re wearing a printed kimono, keep the dress plain.

Distressed jeans pair effortlessly with a kimono to create an edgy and elegant outfit. Since they’re both versatile items, it’s easy to pull off this look and it works for many occasions. Additionally, you can forego a top and wear the kimono as a top by tying a belt over it or opting for a kimono with buttons. Either way, this is a stylish look that will definitely get you compliments.

Kimonos are especially popular during the hot weather since they go well with light outfits. You can wear your favourite sundress with a kimono to add some style and layer up. Make sure the lengths aren’t too far off to give it a more uniform look. For the perfect casual outfit, pair it with sandals and a wide-brim hat.
