Yes, of course you can dress up in a kimono regardless of your nationality or ethnicity without being considered culturally insensitive.

Answer:

Not only is it okay for foreigners to wear kimono, it's invited. There's no better form of validation than the local government sponsoring events like this. They (the Japanese government) want to share these aspects of their culture with us. Most importantly, they want Japanese folks to wear their kimono more often.
