Garments (kamishimo) consisting of outer garment (kataginu) & trousers (hakama)

kamishimo 裃, kataginu 肩衣, hakama 袴

This set of clothing was worn by a daimyō while carrying out his official duties or in the civilian realm. The vest which emphasises the shoulders was worn over a short kimono. The very wide, pleated trousers were bound with a long belt. The silk fabric is dyed with reserve printing and is provided here with the family coat of arms tsuno (antlers).
