One of the characteristics of the kimono is its beautiful design. Kyō yūzen is created using motifs of flowers, birds and other traditional designs through various dyeing and weaving techniques. Sometimes the overall design is likened to a painting. In other cases the design may be made by an artist and then directly painted onto the kimono fabric.
