One of the most exciting parts of Kimono rental is choosing your perfect outfit. Finding your favorite among a sea of beautiful Kimonos is a special, exciting moment.

Waraku Kyoto Kimono Rental was founded with the hope of making one of Japan’s most beautiful traditions — wearing Kimono — accessible and enjoyable to everyone visiting Kyoto, a city where Kimono truly belong.
After expanding our presence in iconic locations like Asakusa and Kamakura, we felt it was only natural to bring our Kimono experience to Kyoto, one of Japan’s most famous and culturally rich cities.
At our shop, you’ll find a wide variety of Kimonos, from all-time favorites to the latest trends.
We also offer a full range of stylish optional accessories such as lace collars, decorative Obijime cords, tulle sashes, Heko Obi, lace gloves, and more — perfect for anyone wanting to create a cute and fashionable look.
With the concept of “making Kimono more accessible, more adorable,” we are committed to offering the latest stylish Kimono coordination ideas, from outfits to accessories and trendy hairstyles.
If you find yourself thinking, ”I want to make unforgettable memories in Kyoto…” or “I want to try wearing a color or style of Kimono I normally wouldn’t wear…” then we warmly invite you to visit Waraku Kyoto Ekimae Station Store.
Our entire team looks forward to welcoming you and helping make your Kyoto experience truly special.
