This listing is for a vintage Japanese kimono made for a young girl or boy. To learn more about these type of kimono read below.

A playful mix of color and texture, this vintage children's kimono features scattered light blue ikat motifs and tiny red accents against a deep midnight blue background. Woven from a lightweight wool-blend fabric, the softly blurred kasuri patterns create a charming, rhythmic design with a relaxed, homespun appeal. This unlined kimono includes attached ties for easy dressing, making it a lovely example of traditional everyday children's clothing.

This kimono has a 3" tuck at the waist and a 1.5" tuck at each shoulder. These can be taken out to allow for more length and width if desired.

Traditional Japanese children's everyday kimono were designed for comfort and practicality, often made from durable cotton or wool-blend fabrics that could withstand regular wear. Unlike elaborate silk kimono reserved for ceremonies and special occasions, these casual garments were worn at home, for outings, and during everyday activities, particularly in cooler weather. Children's kimono often included attached ties for easy dressing and were sometimes made without a lining for a lighter, more comfortable fit.

Vintage Japanese children's kimono make eye-catching displays in spaces too small to accommodate a full-sized kimono. We offer display rods (click the tab below) if you're going to display this kimono.
