This listing is for a vintage and stylized michiyuki jacket, meant to be worn over a kimono. The usual square neckline is a rolled collar on this one, but it still has the inner ties to keep the hemline straight, snap closures and a hidden pocket on the right front panel.  Those are the typical features of a michiyuki - michi means "street" and yuki refers to "going out".

This jacket offers a luxurious wrap.  A soft, sumptuous black velvet drapes with a soft liquid sheen that catches every glimmer of holiday light. According to the label, it was made by a design house called IBK using imported yarn from France.

Snap closures, inner ties, and inner pocket, and a rolled-style collar - so sophisticated! Perfect for festive gatherings, evening outings, or adding a touch of glamour to everyday layers.

Michiyuki are a narrow garment, fastened with snaps that will open if the fit is too tight. (The measurement we give is the jacket snapped closed, so your hips and waist measurement should be several inches smaller than the hips/waist measurement we give.)
