This is a polyester komon (casual kimono) featuring a slightly large crepe weave reminiscent of ancient chirimen (crepe) fabric, with a pattern of tangerine-colored flowering trees across the entire garment. The contrast between the base color, kobicha (a reddish-brown), and the flowering trees is beautifully executed. While I can only speculate, the dyed flowers may be a double-decker variety of Echinacea (purple coneflower), a variety that blooms in two tiers with petals emerging from the center of the flower head, or perhaps passionflowers. Alternatively, they could be something entirely different. It's quite difficult to identify the specific flowers. Although it's a polyester kimono, the process of using one stencil per color is the same as with silk. There are seven lanes, each with 25 meters of white fabric stretched out, and two widths of fabric are placed side by side. Even for a single accent color, the fabric must go through the 25-meter lane seven times, and this process is repeated for each color, making it a very demanding task. Looking at the edges of the leaves and petals in the kimono pattern, you can see the traces of the blurring process. In the case of polyester, unlike silk dyes, disperse dyes, which are difficult to dissolve in water, are used. Therefore, it's difficult to blur the colors with water, and the technique of pouring the dye to create the blurring effect is required. The lining is white polyester, finished in a habutae (silk) style, and the hakke (lining for the lower part of the kimono) is a plain persimmon-colored polyester fabric woven in a seika chirimen style. It is machine-stitched.
