Kimono drawing guide ½, by Kaoruko Maya (tumblr, pixiv, site). Booklet is available in pdf for ¥ 900 here.
Here you can see:
- female kimono and yukata (note how the juban underwear peeks when in kimono + how belts differ)
- male yukata and kimono (note how the juban underwear peeks when in kimono)
- dressing up: male (kimono is not closed yet) and female (kimono closed with datejime belt and ready to put on obi)
- differences between female and male kimono once dressed (note how the collars and belts set)
- common drawing mistakes (compare with previous picture: shoulders lines are too defined, there is a double hem, collars are narrow, belt is not at the right place etc)
- women back collar (the lower the sexier) and men back collar (close to the nape)
- back and sleeves differences between men and women
- collars and sleeves and view of how kimono drapes around body
- Furisode back (long sleeves kimono) and formal furisode obi knot example

and when you were too old to play with them you would just randomly move one when no one was looking
