Overview

Enjoy a private kimono experience in Paris with Sayoko, a kimono specialist who has welcomed over 2,500 international guests since 2018.
Choose your favorite kimono or yukata from a wide selection of more than 200 authentic Japanese pieces, including silk kimono and cotton summer yukata in various colors, styles, and sizes. Sayoko will come directly to your hotel, apartment, or accommodation in Paris, so you can enjoy the experience comfortably without visiting a studio.
After dressing you in kimono, Sayoko will introduce you to the graceful way of moving, walking, handling the sleeves, and presenting yourself beautifully while wearing it. You will also hear cultural stories and everyday customs from Japan, making the experience more than just a photoshoot.
Then, enjoy a private photo walk near iconic Parisian landmarks, capturing your look against the backdrop of the Eiffel Tower. Beautiful photos will be taken with an iPhone throughout the experience and shared with you afterward.
