Abstract

<p>This paper discusses the style of Kimono by the characteristics of the doll Kimono. They are free from the theory of Kimono and considered to be made simpler and more characteristic than human Kimono, so they may show the Kimono-style obviously. We deal with 17 different Kimonos made for a 1/6 scale fashion doll called Jenny. We reproduced them to observe the shapes and compared them with human Kimono. As the results of observation, we focused on the structure for the material cloth, difficulty degree to make, the ratio of the width of each parts, and the relationships with the doll's body shape. In conclusion, the design elements of Kimono-style are the constant form common to all doll kimonos, the ratio of the width of each parts limited by the width of the cloth, and the use of material cloth to reduce waste. In addition, the doll kimonos featured in this study were produced with various interpretations based on these elements.</p>
