Depends on which era the Kimono came from and style. Some Kimonos have

The really fancy and expensive kimonos of the Geisha might have enough
fabric in them. The sleeves hang to the ground, and is wider than the width
of outspread arms. They are even longer on the body than most, with fabric
trailing the ground, even tho part of it is tucked under their obi. There
are similar kinds used for formal "wedding" kimonos as well.
