This listing is for a woman's Japanese summer kimono - called a yukata. These are unlined cotton robes usually worn to casual gatherings or for summer festivals. Yukata are also sometimes offered to guests in Japanese inns and hotels.

Yukata are popular these days as bath robes, beach or poolside cover ups, or for Japanese festivals or sushi parties anywhere in the world.

This yukata is a beauty, with a dark indigo background and lighter blue flowers pinwheeling along behind the large, white lilies. Soft pink shading at the centers of the lilies.  

Unlined.

Yukata can be worn with a casual sash or even styled with a contemporary belt of scarf.  If you’d like something traditional, we sometimes have casual hanhaba (half-width) obi in our shop, but we also offer a simple cotton sash that can be added to your order by clicking the option above. We'll choose a color that goes with or contrasts nicely with the yukata.

See the videos below for how to put on a casual kimono or yukata as well as a slide show of many beautiful ones!
