Description

"Delicate Ikat" Japanique Robe

This shortened kimono robe has a lot going on in the design - well worth a closer look.

The silk is light and crisp with a smooth sheen surface. The patterning was created with the ikat technique - see video below for how this is done. The design itself seems to be a grid jumble with squares of different sizes, each containing a different color and "fuzzy weave" pattern. Subtle colors - gray, green, yellow, black and cream.

Includes a matching sash made from the shortened hem fabric.

There is a blemish on the front right panel (see photo) but it's difficult to discern in the design collage.

We have modified a woman's vintage kimono slightly to create this Japanique Boutique Robe. Shortening the length to 45" makes it easier to wear as a robe or cover up. These also look great worn open as a kimono-style tunic jacket.
