Kimono Punk: Styling & Photo Experience
13 June 2026, kl. 11:00 - 13:30
A creative kimono styling workshop with a professional photo session. Discover
modern ways of wearing kimono and express your own unique style through
Japanese garments.
Step into the world of Kimono Punk, where traditional Japanese garments meet
contemporary creativity.
In this workshop, you will explore playful and creative ways of wearing
vintage kimono through layering, belts, and personal styling. Inspired by the
imaginative world of yokai (Japanese supernatural beings), participants are
invited to experiment and express their own unique look through kimono.
The workshop takes place in Studio Ida Trotzig, surrounded by photographs of everyday
life in Japan around the late 19th century — a reminder that kimono was once
part of daily life and worn in many different ways.
After the styling session, participants will enjoy a professional photo
shooting session to capture their Kimono Punk look.
No previous experience is needed — just curiosity and creativity.
After this workshop, you will be able to wear kimono by yourself in a simple
and modern way.
Please note that this is a creative styling workshop, not a traditional
kimono dressing class.
