I suppose it's all in what you're used to! Dalby writes about how one of the older geisha complained about how tight her waist got in a Western skirt after a big meal, and how she could fit so much more under a nice wide obi. Dalby herself lost weight in kimono because she found it so restrictive. So, there you have it.
Also, it probably has to do with how much one likes playing dress-up, which I greatly like to do. ^_^
