Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI
When visiting Japan, experiencing the traditional culture through wearing a kimono is a must. Right across from Asakusa’s famous Kaminarimon gate, there’s a hidden gem: a high-end kimono rental shop without any signage. PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI offers a spacious 120-tsubo (approximately 400 square meters) store, providing exquisite, custom-made kimonos. Prices range from 38,000 to 72,000 yen, but is it worth it? In this post, I’ll share my experience at the PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI flagship store.

After five years away, I returned to Tokyo to find several days of gloomy weather finally giving way to sunshine. On this day, my friends and I had planned to rent yukata and visit the historic Nakagawa district in Asakusa to photograph hydrangea flowers. We hadn’t booked ahead for kimono rentals, but with the sudden clear skies that morning, we decided to take a chance.
As we strolled through Asakusa, near Mitsui Sumitomo Bank, we saw stylishly dressed tourists entering and exiting through a modest entrance beside the bank. Curious, we ventured closer and stumbled upon a hidden gem: a kimono shop! Despite its unmarked facade, the place radiated charm and authenticity.

Lace kimonos have emerged as a popular trend in recent years, blending new lace fabrics with traditional Japanese culture to create a fresh style of kimono! This innovative product was developed by Kimono Miyabi during the spring of 2020 amidst the pandemic. From design and sampling to mass production, it reflects their dedication to preserving and promoting the heritage of kimono culture.

In addition to their kimono rental services, Kimono Miyabi also operates Miyabistyle, a subsidiary brand specializing in selling kimonos. Nearly all lace kimonos seen on the market originate from their brand. For the most comprehensive selection of lace kimonos, don’t miss out on the pioneer of lace kimono styles.

They offer a variety of styles including lace patterns, two-shaku sleeves paired with graduation hakama, and even children’s sizes.

![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 10 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 54](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-54.jpg)

At PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI, the flagship store offers primarily formal attire rentals starting from 12,000 yen on average, with all women’s packages including hairstyling services. The store provides a wide selection including Komon kimonos, lace kimonos, visiting attire, Furisode (formal long-sleeved kimono for young unmarried women), and wedding attire such as Iro-Uchikake. The children’s section exclusively offers formal wear.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 12 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 10](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-10.jpg)
To the left is the dedicated area for footwear and bags for formal attire, while to the right are geta sandals for summer yukata and zori sandals for daily wear.

Compared to the extensive options for women, the selection for men’s attire appears relatively limited in the children’s formal wear and men’s section.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 14 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 11](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-11.jpg)
The women’s dressing room is exceptionally spacious, accommodating multiple individuals or groups comfortably. The dressing and makeup areas are combined, equipped with lockable storage lockers for personal belongings.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 15 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 7](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-7.jpg)
The makeup area is also generously sized, allowing up to six customers to style simultaneously. The decor features pink-themed walls and chairs, creating a delightful atmosphere reminiscent of a youthful spirit.

Deluxe Silk Furisode Experience for Coming-of-Age Ceremony
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 17 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 4](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-4-1024x768.jpg)
At PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI, the Furisode experience ranges from 38,000 yen to72,000 yen. The price variation in Furisode rentals depends on craftsmanship, fabric quality, and design intricacy.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 18 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 55](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-55.jpg)
Kimono Miyabi exclusively uses high-quality silk fabric known as “real silk” for their Furisode, traditionally referred to as “haku.” Silk not only feels luxurious against the skin but also enhances the kimono’s elegance with its natural sheen. However, due to silk’s delicate nature, requiring dry cleaning rather than water washing, maintenance costs are higher.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 19 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 1](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-1.jpg)
Seeing such beautiful Furisode, my friends and I spontaneously changed our plans from renting yukata to experiencing Furisode, despite the scorching 30-degree Celsius weather.
Katsura Yumi Signature Furisode: Embracing Tradition with Modern Elegance
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 20 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 97](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-97.jpg)
At Kimono Miyabi, you’ll find an extensive collection of Furisode, including several exclusive designs by the renowned fashion designer Katsura Yumi.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 21 445492929 18356831575102802 7854388228585890480 n](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/445492929_18356831575102802_7854388228585890480_n.jpg)
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 22 440351965 827190779436213 5674122794938935873 n](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/440351965_827190779436213_5674122794938935873_n.jpg)
Katsura Yumi is a globally recognized fashion designer born in Tokyo. After graduating from university, she pursued further studies in Paris, France, and traveled to over 20 countries, deeply immersing herself in the field of fashion design. Initially specializing in bridal wear, she expressed concern over the gradual cultural decline of traditional Japanese kimono due to its complex wearing methods. Thus, she ventured into designing modern kimono that blends seamlessly with contemporary fashion trends while preserving and promoting Japan’s unique cultural values.

Sharing the Experience of Wearing Furisode
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 24 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 4 1](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-4-1.jpg)
My friend initially wanted to experience this year’s most popular black and gold Furisode, but after half an hour of deliberation, she found herself torn between two white Furisode instead.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 25 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 80](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-80.jpg)
Despite the wide variety of kimono styles available, once you lay eyes on the one that captures your heart, it’s like finding your destined wedding gown. Surprisingly, compared to black, white Furisode tends to complement one’s complexion, making the skin appear fairer!
Exquisite Obi Coordination
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 26 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 83](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-83.jpg)
Once you’ve chosen your kimono, the next step is selecting the obi belt, a choice that significantly impacts the overall look.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 27 這張圖片的 alt 屬性值為空,它的檔案名稱為 -PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-86.jpg](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/image.jpeg)
Unlike casual kimono and summer yukata, Furisode requires a more elaborate obi belt. A professional Japanese kimono dresser assisted us in selecting and coordinating the obi, considering the pattern and color of the kimono, which is crucial for achieving a harmonious ensemble.
Preparing for Dressing Up
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 28 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 52](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-52-1024x768.jpg)
Finally in the dressing room, the first step is changing into an undergarment and tabi socks, followed by storing our replaced clothing in a locker.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 29 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 56](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-56-1024x768.jpg)
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 30 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 57](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-57.jpg)
The tabi socks provided are brand new, ensuring hygiene and excellent elasticity. Unlike previous experiences at other stores where reused socks were used, this year at the Kiyomizu Temple store in Kyoto, disposable socks have also been made available.
Can Elaborate Hairstyles Get Mixed Reviews? Achieving Elegance with Sweet Japanese Braids
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 31 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 3 1](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-3-1-1024x768.jpg)
Don’t underestimate the allure of kimono necklines despite their covering attire – the exposed neckline can be quite sensual!
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 32 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 1 2](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-1-2-1024x768.jpg)
That’s why hairstyles for kimonos and yukatas often involve elegant updos. Traditional Japanese hair arrangements are far from outdated, featuring voluminous strands and intricate braids that exude sophistication and elegance. Once the kimono is removed, these styles complement Western dresses and fashion seamlessly. If you prefer a different style, communicating with your stylist is key.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 33 2](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/和服編髮-2.jpg)
There are 18 hairstyles to choose from, each meticulously crafted.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 34](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/和服編髮.jpg)
After selecting a hairstyle, the stylist will inquire about your preferred side for photography, placing the main hair accessories accordingly – a thoughtful detail.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 35 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 63](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-63-1024x768.jpg)
The stylists are highly skilled and efficient, with consistent service even across branches like Ueno. Interestingly, some online reviews critique the speed of hairstyling as too casual, highlighting the challenges of running a business where every minute counts for travelers looking to make the most of their expensive trips abroad. Should hairstyling warrant more time and attention?
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 36 1](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/和服編髮-1.jpg)
Even bangs receive careful attention, with a finishing touch of setting spray applied post-styling, and accessories chosen after completing the attire.
Exclusive Service at Its Finest: A 2-to-1 Experience
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 37 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 44](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-44-1024x768.jpg)
Typically, kimono rental shops gather all customers in a communal dressing area. I’ve experienced this setup at other branches of Kimono Miyabi before, where photography is generally prohibited unless there are no other customers present.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 38 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 69](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-69-1024x767.jpg)
Kimono Miyabi’s flagship store sets a new standard in premium service. Here, each woman’s dressing room is partitioned with curtains into private spaces, accommodating only one group at a time, ensuring absolute privacy! With the dresser’s permission, you can even capture the dressing process on camera.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 39 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 70](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-70-1024x768.jpg)
The art of kimono dressing is intricate, requiring licensed professionals known as “kitsuke-shi” in Japan. Wrapping a large piece of fabric without any buttons or zippers to assist, and customizing it for different body types, demands extensive expertise and skill! Two young but incredibly deft dressers assisted me, displaying a level of precision and efficiency without hesitation.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 40 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 39](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-39-1024x768.jpg)
Even the lining of the furisode’s collar is exceptionally refined, adorned with cherry blossom embroidery, and attention is paid to every detail of the garment. During dressing, the dressers presented choices between a white diamond or black collar, a first for me with its sparkle and glamour (possibly Swarovski?). At the flagship store, everything is not just high-grade but the epitome of luxury!
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 41 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 47](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-47-1024x768.jpg)
After the meticulous wrapping process akin to making rice dumplings, it was finally time for the obi belt segment! I initially thought belting would be easier than donning the kimono itself, but crafting an elegant obi knot for the furisode proved just as challenging.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 42 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 51](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-51-1024x768.jpg)

Choosing the obi belt involves selecting one with decorative cords and ornaments.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 45 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 9](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-9-1024x769.jpg)
Post-dressing, the final step is selecting hair ornaments! The stylists recommend styles that complement the attire, offering additional small accessories and pearl accents, ensuring every detail is flawlessly perfect.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 46 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 18](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-18.jpg)
After selecting the kimono, the next step is choosing complementary shoes and a bag!
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 47 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 29](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-29.jpg)
Opting for shoes in the same color scheme as the kimono is a great choice. While the traditional footwear for formal occasions looks stunning, they may not be the most comfortable. For those concerned about comfort, regular straw sandals (“zori”) are a recommended alternative.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 48 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 1 1](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-1-1.jpg)
Despite it being only June, the combination of hot weather and the cumbersome furisode limited our outdoor time to just under an hour. We returned indoors swiftly, retreating to a traditional Japanese room for a simple photoshoot.
Professional English Photography Services
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 49](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/淺草振袖體驗-1024x768.jpg)
Wearing such exquisite attire, skimping on photography costs would be a huge mistake! My friend trusts my photography skills too much, and our outdoor shoot ended up with a bunch of wasted shots! Especially in the bustling crowds of Asakusa, it’s crucial to schedule professional photography in advance if you want to capture beautiful photos, especially showcasing the fluttering sleeves of the furisode! They share many stunning sample photos on their Facebook and Instagram.
In addition to kimono rentals, Kimonomiyabi offers comprehensive photography services ranging from 30 minutes to 2 hours. What’s most convenient is they provide foreign language-speaking photographers too. During peak seasons, it’s crucial to book in advance to secure your preferred time slot!

Who Can Wear Furisode? Can Married Women Wear Furisode?
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 50 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 5 1](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-5-1-768x1024.jpg)
Who can wear furisode? Can married women wear furisode? It’s widely known that furisode is the first formal attire for unmarried women in Japan. Typically worn around the age of 20 during the Coming of Age Ceremony (成人式) and at various formal occasions such as weddings, banquets, and other formal gatherings.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 51 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 3 2](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-3-2.jpg)
If it’s for experiencing, leisurely strolls, or capturing memories through photos, there are absolutely no restrictions. So, if you’re traveling to Japan, why not experience wearing this traditional attire of Japanese young women regardless of your age? Putting it on makes you feel forever 18.
Choosing Between the Flagship Store and Other Branches
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 52 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 76](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-76.jpg)
When selecting a kimono rental shop, factors such as variety of styles, service quality, and convenience of location are crucial considerations. The flagship store of Miyabi specializes in formal attire, offering a wide range of styles, particularly lace kimono and furisode, ensuring customers are never disappointed with the selection.
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 53 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 74](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-74.jpg)
If you’re looking to experience formal attire, the flagship store is definitely the best choice. For those interested in casual kimono, affordable yukata, children’s kimono, or budget-friendly options, the Asakusa Store (Sensoji) is recommended. These two locations are only a 3-minute walk apart. For a VIP experience with kimono dressing services, the flagship store stands out as the ideal choice.
Asakusa Kimono Experience Review
![Tokyo Asakusa Kimono Rental: Premium Custom Kimono at PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 54 PREMIUM KIMONO MIYABI 2 1](https://tapioca.live/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/江戶和裝工房雅旗艦店-PREMIUM-KIMONO-MIYABI-2-1-575x1024.jpg)
This isn’t my first visit to Kimono Miyabi, as I’ve worn furisode and hakama at their Ueno store back in 2018, and also experienced their service at the Kiyomizu-dera store in Kyoto this May, making it one of my favorite spots.
Before experiencing their flagship store, my favorite among the branches was the Ueno store. Unlike the crowded Asakusa tourist area, I preferred the relaxed and peaceful atmosphere of Ueno. Currently, all three Tokyo branches are located in Asakusa, and the closure of the Ueno store was not due to the pandemic but because the landlord decided to reclaim the property. Surviving nearly five years of pandemic challenges in the competitive Asakusa kimono rental market speaks volumes about the store’s resilience.

Although I didn’t personally experience it this time, the overall feedback and past experiences in other stores were quite different. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to rent a kimono. Every detail of the attire will make you feel truly honored.
