The haori is a traditional Japanese hip- or thigh-length jacket worn over a kimono. During the early 1800s, geisha in the hanamatchi of Fukugawa, Tokyo began to wear haori over their kimono. Haori had until that point only been worn by men; the geisha of Fukagawa, well known for their stylish and unusual fashion choices, set a trend that saw women wearing haori become commonplace by the 1930s. In modern-day Japan, haori are worn by both men and women.
