If you're interested, I recommend 'Kimono' and 'Geisha' by Liza Dalby. The first is purely about the history of kimono and how they evolved from 'fashion for layers stolen from the Chinese' to 'everyday wear for both sexes that changes with fashion' to 'ultimate Japaneseness clothing and limited to a particular type and style only worn for Japanese cultural things'. The second is about geisha (and Liza's time as an 'American Geisha' in the 70s), with a section on geisha and kimono (being the last real group to wear them as 'everyday clothes' and how their kimono differ to what most other women wear when they wear a kimono).
