This is a simplified sewing pattern for a kimono. Please note that there is no lining pattern, as it is not needed for cosplay costumes.

If you want to make a traditional kimono, you will need to change the seam allowances and sewing methods. In that case, please refer to a Japanese sewing book.

This pattern is designed mainly for cosplay use and is easy to make.

The difference from a yukata or furisode is that the sleeve length changes depending on height, and the collar is a wide collar (about 2 inches).

The drafting is similar to real kimono drafting, so the pattern also includes the "ohashori" (extra fabric at the waist).

Please note that men’s and women’s patterns are different. Men’s patterns do not include the ohashori, and the collar is a straight style instead of a wide collar.

If you want to create a fully authentic kimono, please use a Japanese sewing book as a reference while sewing.

The sizes shown are based on actual drafted measurements.

This is a very large pattern with many pages. Please check the total number of pages before printing.

After printing, align the sheets along the join lines and attach them with glue or tape. Once joined, simply cut out the pieces. Seam allowances are already included, so you can use the pattern as is.

How to make

* This kimono sewing pattern is a simplified design made for cosplay costumes.

* If you want to create a traditional kimono, please use a Japanese sewing book as a reference.

* Because this is a simplified cosplay kimono pattern, it does not include a lining.

(1) Sew the back center of the body. Finish the seam edges and press the seam allowance to one side with an iron.

(2) Attach the okumi (front panel). Finish the seam edges and press the seam allowance to one side with an iron.

(3) Finish the side edges of the body, sew them together, and press the seam allowances open with an iron.

(4) From the collar position of the okumi down to the hem, finish the edges. Fold about 0.5 inch with an iron and sew.

(5) Attach the collar interlining to the collar. First, sew the outer collar to the collar. Fold both sides by 15 mm, press a center fold, then attach it to the body while sandwiching it with the collar.

(6) Sew the stop position under the sleeve opening, then attach the sleeves to the body.

This free cosplay kimono sewing pattern is beginner-friendly and includes seam allowances. Perfect for DIY sewing projects, handmade cosplay costumes, and Japanese-style outfits. Please check the print size before printing, as the pattern is large and uses many sheets.
