The haori (羽織) is a traditional Japanese hip- or thigh-length jacket worn over a kimono.
The haori resembles a short, typically waist- or mid-thigh-length kimono, but differs slightly in its construction, as it has no overlapping front panels (known as the okumi) allowing it to wrap over the body. The haori is typically tied at the front with two short cords, known as the haori himo, which attach to small loops sewn into the internal collar seam. In the edo period, displays of wealth were forbidden, which gave rise to the creation outlet of haori with sombre external appearances and lavishly-decorated linings which is evident on this particular haori too.
