Inspired by Japanese culture, the kimono is a special piece that was often worn for special occasions. Whether for a wedding, a coming-of-age, tea ceremonies, and even funerals, a kimono has a long fashion history. And while we may not be wearing the more traditional pieces worn by people in Japan, there is something to be said for taking inspiration from another culture, while still respecting the history.

When it comes to taking inspiration from the past and pop culture, Unique Vintage has a wide range of clothing and accessories that can work for women of all ages and sizes. And recently, we learned about their lineup of stunning kimonos inspired by things such as Disney, the Golden Girls, and even the zodiac.

Available in both a one-size-fits-all, as well as a one-size fit plus, there are five options for beautiful kimonos on the Unique Vintage website. Perhaps one of the more stunning pieces is their Disney Princess Collection Teal and Gold Royal Palace Velvet with fringe kimono. The other stunning piece is the 1930s Emerald and Gold Zodiac Burnout Velvet Fringe Kimono. This 1930s inspired piece has a $158 price tag, while the Disney kimono is $138.

Maybe it’s me, but these definitely feel like investment pieces. These are the types of stylish pieces that will elevate a look, while also allowing you to have some fun with fashion. Personally, I love both of these pieces. I think they would be stunning around the holiday season. But I think they’re versatile enough to be worn all year long. It just depends on what the occasion might be.

These pieces look elegant, and upscale, while also allowing you to show off your interests. If you want to show off your pop culture fandom or the things that make you happy, these kimonos allow you to do that. So if you’re looking to dress up for a special occasion, while still bringing some whimsy to the look, you could throw this on over a little black dress, a simple black top and pants or whatever you’re looking to elevate, it feels like these kimonos can make that happen.
