To find your correct kimono size: measure your chest circumference (fullest part), your height, and your waist (for belted styles). Most modern kimono robes are sized S/M/L/XL with generous proportions — when in doubt, size up. Japanese sizing typically runs smaller than US sizing, so we recommend going up one size from your usual US size.

How to Measure Yourself

You'll need a soft measuring tape. Measure in your underwear for the most accurate results:

  • Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor
  • Waist: Measure around your natural waist — the narrowest part of your torso
  • Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat
  • Height: Stand straight against a wall and measure from floor to top of head

Length Guide — Short vs Long Kimono

Kimono length is equally important as size:

  • Short/mini kimono (above knee): Best as a fashion cardigan or beach cover up
  • Midi kimono (knee to mid-calf): Most versatile — works as loungewear, dress, and layer
  • Long kimono (ankle length): Most dramatic — ideal for bridal robes and luxury loungewear
How do I measure myself for a kimono?
Measure your chest (fullest part), waist, hips, and height with a soft measuring tape. Japanese sizing runs smaller than US — size up one size from your usual US size.
Are kimonos one size fits all?
Many modern kimono robes are designed as one-size-fits-most (typically XS-XL). However, we recommend checking the size chart for specific measurements, especially for formal or fitted styles.
