Description

When you think of Japan what comes to mind-- Origami? Sushi? Geisha? Kimono? The word "kimono", which literally means a "thing to wear" (ki "wear" and mono "thing"), has come to denote these full-length robes. 


This woven cotton kimono with it's unusual darting lightning bugs and watery spirals alludes to the summer, but you'll be styling no matter what the season. It is long (64" and for someone of a medium build.) Keep the length, or hem it to your heart's content. Wear it as an open overobe or belt it - you'll make a lovely fashion statement here in the high desert or anywhere you live or travel to!


Machine wash warm and no bleach. Air dry or touch up with an iron.
