"Ocean Waves" Japanique Jacket

Lovely shades of tealy blue-green in long, flowing shapes that look to us like rolling ocean waves. The colors and the smooth drape of the silk make this a unique jacket that will get a lot of looks.

There seems to be a bit of dye bleed in many of the element edges showing as a pinkish shade, but that could be intentional.

Don't miss the secret pocket on the right side, see photo above with white scarf tucked in the pocket.

Very good condition - there's a watermark on top left sleeve back that wouldn't show when worn, see last photo.

Each Japanique Jacket starts out as a vintage michiyuki, which is a narrow jacket with snap closures meant to be worn on top of a kimono. Most vintage michiyuki won't fit larger frames, so we modified the traditional garment slightly (removed the snaps and tacked the panels back to create lapels) to make a roomier, open, flowing jacket that can fit sizes 12-18. Our Japanique Jacket could also be crossed over and belted on a smaller sized person. These are all one-of-a-kind jackets, so sizing will vary slightly, see measurements given. See video below on the various types of kimono jackets.
