- This is 1 of 5 films that take you on a personal curator tour of our exhibition Kimono: Kyoto to Catwalk.
Captured as the museum was closing its doors for a while, curator Anna Jackson guides you through the exhibition spaces, providing a personal insight into the making of the show, star exhibits and the fascinating history of the kimono. Sometimes perceived as traditional, timeless and unchanging, Kimono: Kyoto to Catwalk counters this conception, presenting the garment as a dynamic and constantly evolving icon of fashion.
The exhibition reveals the sartorial, aesthetic and social significance of kimono from the 1660s to today, both in Japan and the rest of the world.
This film looks at: Edo period | Merchant class affluence and taste | changes in patterns and motifs | the obi | fashion in woodblock prints | wedding kimono | men's kimono | kabuki actors and fashion | courtesans and kimono

I wrote my senior thesis on Kabuki Theater! This is so cool
Thank you. The beauty of this exhibition is lighting up my life.
yeah, by stealing light from my life by cultural appropriation
The variations of the standard pieces is so enviously wonderful! You have done a beautiful job of explaining this discipline.
I always wanted to own a dressing gown made from the most colourful, richly embroidered brocade, so I can look forward to getting up in the morning and be instantly cheered up!
I’ve never even seen anything like that in shops, but probably I could not afford it, if I have found it.
Kimonos probably had that effect on the wearers and they were extremely expensive in some cases.
i was going to say something about the beautiful shibori work on that yellow kimono and then i saw the one with the skeletons on it.
i now know what to do with the skeleton fabric i have sitting around
Amazing exhibition otherwise and truly appreciate the beauty and effort involved. Really brightening up our days in this global fight against the virus.
Amazing and so interesting! Great narrative tour by the V&A!
🦊I have a wildly different opinion.
And her inaccuracies agree with me.
" Very beautiful ! "
It seems that kimono were an early form of what today we would call merch or fan based products! Who knew! I will never look at a merch t-shirt the same way again.
Quick note on the artisans/geisha commentary around minute 7: using the term geisha houses would probably be more appropriate than brothels, given the social classes involved.
Great exhibition!
Very interesting

日本人としてとても誇らしいです！
Will the exhibition still be on when the museum reopens, whatever that date?
Good question. I’d like to know as well with a view to visiting what looks like a wonderfully curated exhibition with beautiful artifacts. A real shame if the public never had the chance to see it.
At this moment, it is my understanding travelers to GB from the States are not allowed by GB and most of Europe. Too much Covid here.
If I ever try a kimono on, I hope it will feature skeletons
What is kimono
Fantastic, but why are the walls green?
Are you racist against green ?
@@barkebaat haha no but usually the color of the walls in those exhibits are chosen to complement the pieces
@@tomgwerzman3644 : and you're implying green does not complement the pieces ? I think it does. Are you saying my sense of colour is inferior to yours ? I'm so triggered I'll hurt myself now. I hope that makes you happy.
I’m
I can't handle her saying "obbie" over and over 😓
You’re so fucking ignorant…
Great Video. Terrible, inaccurate, Narration.😀
Less of the curator please, more of the items.
3:25 - this is so racist. or discrimination or at least makes me so angry.
I’m not sure what you mean. A family was more likely to keep ornate kimonos than plain ones. Fashions at the time meant that women’s kimonos tended to be more ornate than men’s. Thus, when museums are looking to buy antique kimonos, they can only buy the ones which someone made a special effort to keep. There are more women’s kimonos on the antiques market than men’s.
@@helenpaul7795 : Just trolling ... didn't you know that any disparity of any kind is rooted in deep, systemic 'fill-in-the-blank-ism' ? It's silly I know, but on the upside we only need one explanation for everything and that makes it very ... inclusive.
@@barkebaat They can't buy stuff which has been thrown out. Museums try to buy all kinds of things but there is a selection bias inherent in the items which the owners themselves choose to conserve. The curator acknowledges that.
