Her breasts are huge... lol
kimonos are not made of stretchy fabric, her breasts, no matter how big, shouldn't be that round and well defined. The point to kimono are actually to try to have a tubular figure. towels or bandages are used to even out the silouette a little more, for big breasts or smaller hips figures. Towels are wrapped around the small hips, and bandages are sometimes used to flatten the chest more.
You might also want to put a print on your kimono. a fabric design based on either an animal or a season. i usually see birds (heavenly birds, or pheonix birds for exemples) flowers, dragons, random fabric designs, leaves, bubbles, big barres of colour, gold fishes... well, there are so many designs, you can just make a search in google images if you need to 
The hair is often tied back, and/or decorated with certain ornaments or jewels.
If it wasn't for that, nice job ^^ proportions look nice and i like the air. You just skiped a few basics of kimonos...lol
Keep up the nice work ^^
PS:sorry for the rant, read that you liked drawing girls in kimonos so i tought it could help. hope i helped a little. ^^

I'm so glad you enjoyed that X3
Most of the time when i try to help with something like this i get yelled at for bad critics...?_?
Yeah i have a drawing book on drawing different types of manga girls and there's a part about drawing girls in kimono (since mangas are from japan, and kimono is a traditional outift there, it makes sense). To explain why you should draw things like this or like that, they actually showed step by step of how to put on a kimono, and gave explanations on the towels and bandages use.
I'm glad i could help you a little ^^
Good luck with futur kimono drawings! lol ^^

She's well done overall, but I'd like to add that her brests are too emphasized. The kimono is designed to make a woman look beautiful and mysterious in part by flattening her chest and making her somewhat androgynous. You might consider an alteration?

Thanks for your comment. Good point, I'll keep that in mind for the next kimono girl. I actually like drawing kimonos so I'll definately do another someday.

It's good........ But I'd suggest tweaking the mouth a bit, cause it kinda looks like she's frowning a bit. But that's my opnion.
