A yukata (浴衣, lit. ' bathrobe ') is an unlined cotton summer kimono, [1] worn in casual settings such as summer festivals and to nearby bathhouses. The name is translated literally as "bathing cloth" and yukata originally were worn as bathrobes; their modern use is much broader, and are a common sight in Japan during summer.
For men, yukata are worn with either an informal kaku obi or a heko obi. Children generally wear a heko obi with yukata. Yukata are always unlined, and it is possible for women to wear a casual nagoya obi with a high-end, more subdued yukata, often with a juban underneath. A high-end men's yukata could also be dressed up in the same way.
It is often provided in Japanese hotels as a bathrobe, and is intended to be used indoors only, whereas the yukata may be worn outdoors. [1] In some cases, nemaki are gauze-lined. [2] The kanji may be written (寝巻) or (寝間着), with the former referring to the bathrobe, and the latter referring to sleepwear in general. [3]
