My name is Diane, I am a twenty-something woman with a passion for wearing and collecting vintage kimono. In this blog, I hope to catalogue my collection, share interesting information about special pieces, and record coordinations and outfits. If you want to know more about me, please don’t be shy to ask.

I also plan to discuss the challenges of collecting and wearing clothing made for the typical lithe Asian physique 50 to 100 years ago, when you have a western hourglass figure and are 5’10″, as well as review books I find interesting and relevant to the subject, and share tips and tricks for shopping online.

A note on the name: “suki” means a love or strong fondness, so “kimono suki” (着物 すき) can be interpreted as “kimono love”. My nickname online is Moony, and moon in Japanese is “tsuki” (月), so “kimono tsuki” (着物月) is a play on that.
