Winter items discounted, excluding antiques. Black formal kimono with embroidered pair of birds. Length: Approximately 158.5cm Sleeve to sleeve length: Approximately 62.5cm Sleeve length: Approximately 47.5cm About 5 years ago, I purchased this unworn black formal kimono with the basting threads still attached at Fifth Avenue. The lining was faded. Since it didn't have a himoya (lining attached to the main garment), I had a himoya added at a kimono shop. I ended up wearing another formal kimono, so this one is unworn. The lining, which is not the himoya, has faded and turned brown. The kimono shop advised me to replace this lining as well. Ultimately, the lining remains as it was when I purchased it. I think it should be fine to wear. I am not very knowledgeable about kimonos, so I may have overlooked some things. Thank you for looking.
