Obiage Use in Kitsuke: The Obiage is an essential part of kitsuke, primarily used to cover the Obimakura (obi pillow) and create a smooth, polished layer under the obi. It helps to hold the obi in place, ensuring a neat and well-structured look. By tucking the Obiage inside the obi, it keeps everything securely positioned, preventing shifting and wrinkles.
Obijime Use in Kitsuke: The Obijime is a decorative and functional cord used to secure the obi in place, tying it firmly to prevent slipping. It is tied around the waist, helping to keep the obi structure secure and in position. While it provides stability, the Obijime also adds an elegant, refined finishing touch to the obi, enhancing the overall appearance of the kimono. An essential part of kitsuke, it combines both practical function and aesthetic beauty to complete the kimono dressing process.
