Kouken, Tsunodashi and Otaiko Musubi

 I tried three types of Obi musubi with a Gold leaf brocade fukuro obi. 

Kouken Musubi（後見風結び）

This type of obi musubi is flat and easy to wear when riding in a car.

Kouken Musubi is commonly worn for traditional dance, and by geisha.  

I have arranged this obi a bit differently compared to formal Kouken Musubi. 

Tsunodashi Musubi（角出し結び）

This style is my favorite obi musubi, since it is easy for me to tie. 

The Tsunodashi musubi is considered to be casual. 

Taiko Musubi（お太鼓結び）

Here is the most common obi musubi called "Otaiko." 

Exquisite Sets of Obi and Kimono

 These obi and kimono sets are so CHIC with unified colors.
