"Holiday Celebration" Wedding Kimono (Kakeshita) A festive collage of imagery seems to dance across the back of this bold and beautiful kimono. The traditional "Japanese Red" (with an orange tint) is the background but your eye will follow the kelly green path of hillsides as it wanders along, with bright cobalt plum blossoms dotted along its border. You'll also see orange mums and other florals, with lots of gold accenting. Behind the green path is a green and red stenciled overlapping circle pattern, which fully anchors itself across the hemline. Fan shapes - note the elaborately embroidered one that appears at the front left collar! - and more embroidery in the large florals found on the front lower panel. This is a kakeshita style of wedding kimono, with a lighter weight silk and a lighter padding at the hem. It can be belted. ___________________ Silk Lined? yes Length=69" Wrist-to-Wrist=50" Hips/waist (includes overlap)=54" Condition: Excellent - one small hole on the back left sleeve.
