Sono Kimono presents A Year in Kimono, a lecture about the history of kimono from its origins to its role in modern-day fashion. Participants will have the option to dress in yukata, the cotton summer kimono popular for festivals and celebrations.

Sono Kimono's Robyn Mortiboys, Secretary of the Japan Society of Fairfield County, will lead the presentation. She will also display an assortment of vintage kimonos that highlights their formality and explains which garment is appropriate for a given occasion.
