For a classic and coordinated look, couples can choose the same color for both partners:
• White × White – fresh, clean, and elegant
• Black × Black – sophisticated and formal
This approach works well for traditional photoshoots and gives a sense of unity between partners.
1. Match the Same Color
Another popular style is to let the woman’s kimono stand out with soft, pastel colors, while the man wears basic colors:
• Woman: pastel pink, baby blue, soft lavender
• Man: black, navy, or dark gray
This combination creates a gentle contrast, making photos visually appealing while keeping a balanced look
2. Pastel for Women, Basic Colors for Men
If you want more variety, you can choose different colors for each partner, but coordinate small details or accessories to match:
• Obi and Hakama Matching – the woman’s obi (sash) matches the man’s hakama (pleated pants or skirt) color
• Golden Accents – both kimono sets feature subtle gold patterns or embroidery
• Accessory Color Coordination – the woman’s bag or hairpiece complements the color of the man’s kimono or hakama
This approach gives couples flexibility while keeping a sense of harmony, making your outfits look thoughtfully coordinated.
