Each item is made from rare vintage and antique silk kimono textiles, often only enough for one or two garments. Once the textile is gone, that exact shade, weave, or pattern can’t be sourced again.
100% silk kimono from Japan (1930s-1960s). This kimono has a personal history, once worn and cherished within Sara's family and repurposed into a unique garment. The original kimono seams are preserved, honoring the garment's history and craftsmanship with hand-mending throughout. Natural signs of age and wear in the fabric. Front chest pocket, side slit, a high-low hem, and corozo buttons. Each garment is cut individually by hand. One of a kind.
Size and garment measurements:
Size M: Front length 28.5" / Back length 30.75" / Chest 24.5" / Sleeve 22.75". Fits sizes S/M, depending on desired fit. The model is 5'8" and traditionally wears a size L.
