#213 1980s (MAYBE) VINTAGE JAPANESE FLORAL COTTON YUKATA KIMONO
Another great cotton 'yukata' kimono...unlined, these are usually worn as daywear in the summer in Japan but in Europe, we'll wear it either indoors as a dressing gown or outside (when we get a summer!) as a duster coat or chuck-on with jeans or loose fit trousers. These are easily altered for length by simply turning up the hem as required.
This one is a more 'recent vintage' by virtue of being hand finished but machine made... and that's reflected in the price.
Measurements are to be found within the images but as a guide, most long kimonos will easily fit up to a UK size 14 and still wrap but if worn open, up to a 18 or 20.
They're easy to shorten if you can simply stitch a hem.
You can check the measures against a dressing gown or kimono you own and are happy with.
Care notes:-
Beingcotton, these yukatas can actually be washed but they are still hand sewn items
and a delicate or hand wash would be best.
Cleanfresh stains and spills with wipes and hang out to air as with all natural
fabrics and it will prolong the life of your vintage item.
