Originally a simple piece of fabric, the obi has evolved over time into a symbolic accessory that not only fulfils a practical purpose, but also reflects the style, status and personality of its wearer.

The history of the Obi belt

The origins of the obi belt go far back into Japanese history. It developed from the simple belts that were used in ancient times to secure clothing.

During the Heian period (794-1185 AD), the obi began to play a more important role in Japanese fashion, especially in clothing such as kimonos.

Over the centuries, the obi has developed into a small work of art in itself.

During the Edo period (1603-1868 AD), obi belts became an important status symbol, often elaborately decorated and embroidered with precious materials such as silk and gold thread.

The function of the Obi belt

Apart from its aesthetic value, the obi belt also fulfils a practical function. It is used to hold kimonos and hakamas securely to the body and give them a perfect fit.

Depending on the occasion and the type of garment, the Obi belt can be worn in different styles and knots, covering everything from formal to casual.

In addition, the obi belt has a deeper symbolic meaning in Japanese culture. It can indicate the wearer's marital status, social status and even personality.

In some cases, special obis are worn on festive occasions such as weddings or tea ceremonies to emphasise the importance of the event.
