A beautiful, red kimono with traditional Japanese kicho design (a type of traditional Japanese curtain), in a Bingata style print, full of glorious flowers and blue clouds.
A very, very good quality synthetic textile. Fully lined.
Lovely worn as a kimono or elegant robe but also a very good size for display. Belt NOT included - for display purposes only; a wide elastic belt is a great, quick and easy way to quickly become stunningly and effortlessly elegant when putting on this kimono.
In the photos it is worn by a woman 5"1"/155cm tall (note she is wearing platform shoes which affect how length looks), bust 34" (34C UK bra size), waist 26.5", hips 36.5", she wears UK10 mostly, sometimes UK8 (for 8's narrower shoulders). On someone taller it would, of course, be shorter.
This is a Shichi-Go-San kimono. The kimono is actually a girl's kimono but all Japanese girls and boys always wear their kimonos with very big tucks loosely tacked into the shoulders and waist, greatly narrowing the shoulders and shortening the kimonos, therefore, without those tucks, many, like this one, are big enough for a slim adult to wear.
May have white shitsuke (basting stitches) around some edges, on the outside of the garment. These are simply to keep it neat during storage and just get pulled out before use
Made in and bought from Japan
