Today I saw a program on an exhibition of Shigeko Ikeda ( 池田 重 子 ). She is a major collector and above all obidome kimono old. It is also a great stylist of kimonos.
The program tells of his beginnings as a collector. With money from his divorce (it was for a house) obidomes bought his first drawing to be auctioned a large collection. One thing leads to another and now has 10,000 pieces of kimonos and other ancients.
This exhibition displays 60 combinations of kimonos. 
But what I really wanted to talk about is that he says to combine kimono and obi no reason to come in pairs.
For example ume goes with Uguisu, pine cranes, chidori in fishing nets, etc. The downside is that you have a lot of kimonos and accessories to make these combinations.
A combination with Sakura. 
A combination of this new year. Bamboo, ume and rabbit. 
must also take into account the movement of the elements of the kimono. 
Bird flying in the kimono ...

maritime elements. Color also is important. She likes simple combinations with few colors.
