	The construction of '''Japanese clothing''' is almost all based on a very simple pattern of rectangles. While any given garment has a characteristic width, in general [[Japan\|Japanese]] [[fabric]] is much narrower than [[Europe]]an, and the construction of [[clothing]] reflects this: it takes about 4 widths to adequately cover an average person.

	The basic Japanese garments are the [[kosode]] and [[hakama]], both of which are worn, with minor variations, by men and women alike. The kosode is a robe which overlaps in front (always left over right, unless the wearer is dead or expects to be shortly); hakama are variously described as a divided [[skirt]] or very full [[pants]]. The kosode as [[underwear]] is invariably white, though when worn as a visible garment it may be any color. Women's hakama, particularly nagabakama worn with high court costume, are often red. Patterns for ~~these~~ ~~two~~ ~~garments~~ may be found [http://www.reconstructinghistory.com/japanese/Jap123s.html here].
