This listing is for a traditional underkimono (juban in Japanese) designed to be worn beneath a furisode style kimono (note the longer sleeves). Underkimono make great robes because they are shorter than over-kimono so they don't have the extra length that is folded over to pad the waist. See the video below about how juban are traditionally worn.

This kimono features a beautifully dyed pink silk background with fluffy clouds floating in from edges. Hues change subtly from pink to pale yellow. Sakura (cherry blossoms) are scattered about - some dyed in cream and pink with gold details.

Look closely to see the flowing water rippling down the length, making the blossoms appear as though they are drifting along the current.

The kanji characters and red stamp that appear on the inside panel might be the name of the design house or ?

Underkimono have a basic white collar which would be covered with an embroidered over-collar - the only part of this garment that would be seen by the public.  An over-collar is added to match the formality of the outer kimono, which in this case would be a very formal furisode. 

This kimono doesn't include a belt, but we do offer casual cotton sashes that can be added at checkout.  If you're planning to display this kimono, consider our 60" hanging rods, which can also be added at check out.
