Sewn from the finest of damask silk this 1930’s kimono can be paired with just about anything. The shorter haori style is contradicted with its largely draped sleeves that fall softly off the shoulders. And featuring a simple, yet mesmerizing shibori floral print done in vibrant shades of orange, salmon, yellow, and black. This lively color scheme paired with the voluminous sleeves projects a charming charisma of delight.

The contrast between the dark and light colors further enhances the kimono’s silhouette and thus, highlighting the figure of those who wear it.
