The Theme of CUCURU is 'Color Play' ♡

I recently visited the store, and CUCURU has an amazing variety of kimonos and accessories ♡ Of course, they have countless kimonos, but the range of colors for the zori (traditional sandals) is also really cute ♡ They actually have even more colors available! Isn't that amazing???

No wonder, as CUCURU's concept is "Color Play" ♡ You can coordinate with a cohesive color scheme or mix and match different patterns and colors to enjoy various impressions ♡ CUCURU is a professional shop that helps you find the perfect kimono combination for you, allowing for fun and freedom ♡

Let me introduce the charm of CUCURU, a rental shop specializing in fabulous bridal kimono.

CUCURU's Charm #1: Get Advice on What Kimono Suits You

Isn't it difficult to choose a kimono compared to a wedding dress? You might have vague ideals like "I want to wear a red uchikake" or "I dream of a white shiro-muku," but kimonos are not very familiar, and it can be hard to know what suits you.

At CUCURU, they will coordinate all items such as obi, uchikake, and haneri (collar) to create the combination that suits you best, and that’s their charm ♩

CUCURU's Charm #2: Luxurious Quality at Affordable Prices

The kimonos and accessories offered at CUCURU are all top-notch products. Crafted by renowned artisans from Japan, these pieces exude a quality and elegance that you won't find in other rental shops or budget stores＊ It’s a wonderful place where you can rent high-quality kimonos at reasonable prices.

Look at this magnificent embroidery ♡ It features large pastel-colored flowers on the back ♡ The stitching is so lavish that apparently, it feels very heavy when worn.

At weddings attended by discerning mothers and grandmothers, you want to showcase a magnificent and elegant outfit rather than an inexpensive kimono, so that you can create unforgettable memories as a bride ♡

CUCURU's Charm #3: Abundant Accessories ♡

The third charm of CUCURU is the wide variety of accessories available ♡ One item to particularly note is their 'headpieces'! There aren’t many options for hair ornaments that match traditional wear, but CUCURU has lots of stylish original headpieces that combine traditional and modern styles ♡

For example, this ribbon-shaped headpiece that looks like it's made from kimono obi is incredibly cute, isn’t it? Accessories made from traditional materials but with a somewhat Western flair are unique to CUCURU ♡ It evokes a romantic retro × vintage world view ♡

If You're Unsure About Kimono, You Should Book CUCURU First ♡

Traditional Japanese attire can often easily be judged as 'good or bad' and 'expensive or inexpensive' at first glance. If you are thinking about wearing a kimono for your once-in-a-lifetime wedding, wouldn’t you want to wear a kimono that is "high-quality and simply touching"?

Moreover, CUCURU allows you to choose from a wide range of luxurious kimonos and even suggests the best combinations for you, making the fitting experience truly enjoyable ♡ Plus, there are no extra charges for any of the accessories you choose! You only pay for the kimono rental fee! It’s definitely a shop that brides-to-be who want to wear traditional clothes on their wedding day or for pre-shoots and post-shoots should visit＊

CUCURU just had its grand reopening this May. Go find "the perfect kimono for you filled with color, playfulness, and hospitality" ♡
