Colorful temari balls, decorative folding fans, origami cranes, and treasure ships appear in vibrant shades of blue, green, yellow, red, and white, creating a playful collection of auspicious motifs symbolizing happiness, prosperity, longevity, and good luck. The colorful designs are printed on lightweight, unlined silk, with attached ties for easy dressing.

This kimono has an 8" tuck at the waist and a 3" tuck at each shoulder. These can be taken out to allow for more length and width if desired.
