- A ro silk, kuro (black) tomesode kimono, with a golden Mr Moon stencilled on the front. The gold is very slightly sparkly too.
- Made of high quality ro silk. Ro is a weave of silk that is slightly sheer when held up to the light and it has a banded, airy weave, for coolness in summer. Keeping the wearer cool is also why it is a hitoe (unlined) kimono. Beautiful worn the traditional way but also makes an extremely sexy, slightly sheer robe. Very easy to hem if you wished to shorten it a little, no cutting required, simply fold the amount required up to the inside and loosely stitch in place. The moon is high enough to allow it to be shortened quite a bit.
- This is an itsutsu mon (5 crests) kimono, the most formal of kimonos, and its mon are paulownia.
- Tiny white stitching often seen across the back of kuro tomesode kimonos is a traditional feature.
- Sash/Belt not included - for display purposes only
- May have white shitsuke (loose 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
