This summer kimono offers a playful design, showcasing a light and airy texture with a gentle, bird's-egg-like translucence, and a contrasting look on the left and right sides. It evokes a natural, unpretentious, and relaxed atmosphere. The skillful manipulation of stripes, both vertically and horizontally, creates a sophisticated interplay of light and shadow. This design utilizes plain areas to create different faces on the left and right, and once worn, it will captivate you with its delightful comfort. This is a silk tsumugi summer kimono, featuring a "katamigawari" (half-and-half) design. ~Silk Basho~ This fabric is woven to resemble basho-fu (banana fiber cloth) using silk threads. Silk Basho is characterized by its crisp texture, which feels like a gentle summer breeze against the skin. Its light texture allows for a sense of transparency, and the tasteful knots that appear add to its charm. Its approachable, rustic feel makes it comfortable to wear during the hot summer months. As the name suggests, the "katamigawari" design features different patterns on the left and right sides, creating a unique visual effect. This stylish approach, unique to silk Basho, offers a soothing experience for your summer days. Imagine casual outings, relaxing at home, or enjoying an evening breeze – just thinking about it lowers your body temperature... Made from high-quality silk, it drapes beautifully and is easy to move in. It is carefully hand-sewn. It includes a "ishiki-ate" (seat lining) to cover any transparency from undergarments, protect the kimono from sweat and dirt, and reduce stress on the seams and fabric around the hips, enhancing the beauty of the back. This is a brand-new item, worn only once for photography, with the basting threads still attached. How about adding it to your summer wardrobe?
