5 Ways to Style a Kimono from Beach to Dinner
At Orixah, our Kimonos are more than just cover-ups — they’re confidence in motion. Inspired by the fluid elegance of Koi fish and the relaxed charm of Brazilian resort Culture, each kimono in our collections is designed to take you effortlessly from beach side bliss to moonlit dinners.
Here are five easy, stylish ways to wear your kimono — no matter where the day takes you.
- The Classic Beach Cover-Up
Throw your kimono over your bikini or one-piece as you head from the pool to the beach bar. The lightweight fabric and bold prints create instant elegance, while the open flow keeps you cool and comfortable.
Style tip:
Pair with oversized sunglasses and a straw hat for a timeless resort vibe.
2. Belted for a Chic Wrap Dress
Cinch your kimono at the waist with a belt or sash to transform it into a statement wrap dress. Add layered necklaces and sandals, and you’re ready for an al fresco lunch or golden hour photos.
Style tip:
Try a natural fiber belt (like raffia or canvas) to keep the look earthy and tropical.
3. Draped Over Linen Shorts or Trousers
Balance your kimono’s print with crisp white shorts or loose linen trousers. This combo is perfect for sightseeing or shopping in the heat.
Style tip:
Add gold hoops, slides, and a tote bag for a modern tropical goddess look.
4. Tied in Front for a Cropped Look
Knot the bottom corners of your kimono to create a cropped, tie-front top. It shows off your bikini or bandeau underneath and creates a casual, carefree energy.
Style tip:
This look pairs beautifully with high-waisted swim bottoms or a sarong skirt.
5. Worn Open Over an Evening Dress
Let your kimono flow over a slip dress or jumpsuit for a breezy dinner look. The contrast of relaxed layering and elegant lines makes it feel effortless and elevated.
Style tip:
Add a statement earring and a clutch — you’re dinner-ready in five minutes.
