This book provides an overview of various traditional garments, introduces types of designs found in twentieth century kimono that are still available, and presents wearable art inspired by kimono from contemporary artists. The text gives price ranges for items that would be reasonable in a store or gallery, and explains what to look for when collecting. Because kimono are disappearing from Japanese wardrobes, they probably will become increasingly collectible."
