This cotton kimono may look like a yukata, but it is actually called a nemaki and is meant for at-home use.  They are also offered as robes at spas and hotels. Nemaki differ from yukata in that they are shorter, in a softer cotton, have narrow sleeves, are often lined in white cotton gauze, and might even have a pocket.

This nemaki robe features lilies and leaves in the classic white and blue color combination.

Unfortunately, there is some yellowing at the collar which might be lightened with a careful washing, see last photo. (Though more complicated, the over-collar could be removed, flipped, and re-attached, or the collar could be covered in a blue or contrasting fabric.)  Priced accordingly.

Nemaki can be worn with a casual sash or even styled with a contemporary belt of scarf. We offer a simple cotton sash that can be added to your order by clicking the option above. We'll choose a color that goes with or contrasts nicely with the nemaki.
