ok here's what I been wanting to know what's the meaning behind the split sleeves in their kimono. Like its short with long sleeves attached. Is that so when they become Geisha they just have to take the long end off and sew the short one together? Wonder dance though.

@Aranur It's one sleeve with a tuck in it, young girls kimono have it and its to show that they are not yet women

@SlugPerson Thank you for that I've always been curious about that aspect of a Maiko's Kimono.

It's not short like you think. One for a Maiko & One for a geiko are 2 separate kimonos. Maiko wear louder colors & patterns.
