craftgrrlI quickly whipped up a kimono the night before the Japanese Club Halloween event I went to (for my costume). I didn't use a pattern because, well, I'm terrified of them (and also, the pattern for a kimono was over $15, which cost more than all my fabric). Someone on Glitter basically explained how to make a very ultra basic kimono since it is just a "T" shape, so it was easy to make.
Anyway, photo behind the cut. It's the only picture I have from my camera that shows me in the full outfit, and it's a group photo, but I should be easy to find.
Total cost of project: About $12. Three yards of the silky fabric at only $3/yd, 1.5 yards of solid colro fabric for fake obi sash $1/yd, and two yards of a golden rope to tie around at $1/yd. Plus tax/.
