I traveled Mediterranean with 5 kimonos. Kimono regulations do not permit to wear Summer Kimono in September. If you wear summer cotton kimono or hemp kimono after September 1st, old strict Japanese lady walk straight up to you and warn you.
But who knows it in Europe!!? The temperature was around 75F-90F, 25C-30C in early September. I enjoyed summer Kimonos. Guys who met me around Mediterranean, thank you for telling my kimono was beautiful.

Graduated Kimono Class
I finished my kimono class. Now I can wear Kimono full set in 15 minutes. Please don't think 15 minutes is too long. We must wear two kimonos at once, tight one kimono with 2 ropes.
Additionally, Obi sash and sash belt, sash ribbon should be tighten. If you bind ropes or sashes too tight, you can not eat anything!
And in the summer season, Tokyo has become really hot and muggy because of town heat, wearing kimono is a kind of a torture. Recently in Tokyo, the temperature become over 33C (90F) everyday!
