This listing is for a woman's Japanese summer kimono - not quite a yukata, since it lacks the brighter colors and patterns typically seen on a yukata. But it is an unlined, light and airy kimono that would still be worn in the hot and humid summer months. The fabric is not cotton, it's a slightly stiff synthetic blend, with a bit of a linen feel.

It still makes a comfy bath robe, beach or poolside cover up, or festival wear for Japanese events or sushi parties anywhere in the world.

This kimono is white with a light blue woven pattern of arrow fletching. The weaving is a style of ikat or kasuri, where the threads are dyed before being woven so that the pattern emerges on the loom.

There is some slight discoloration where the collar would be folded over but it can easily be hidden and might even lighten up with washing over time. See last photo.

The belt is not included, but if you'd like to wear or display this kimono with a traditional obi, browse our selection of OBI BELTS. Although it isn't traditional, if you'd like one of our simple cotton sashes to wear with this, we'll choose a complimenting color (see Add a Sash? above).
