About UCHIKI or UWAGI
　Formerly at the IMPERIAL HOUSEHOLD of Japan, women had worn a combination of costumes called NYOUBOUSYOUZOKU since around the 11th century (the midlle of the HEIAN ERA of Japan). This was used by the dignitaries of the imperial house. This was a variation of CHOUFUKU in around the 9th century worn by woman-in-waiting at Court.
　NYOUBOUSYOUZOKU consists of KARAGINU, UWAGI, UCHIGINU(glossed robe), ITSUTSUGINU, HITOE, MO, HAKAMA, HIOUGI.
　The robes from UWAGI to HITOE are basically the same in style and the outermost robe to be layered among them is called UWAGI.
