This listing is for a Japanique Jacket – slightly modified from a vintage kimono jacket (michiyuki) to create a roomier, casual fashion piece that suits sizes 10-16 very well. (See modification details below.)

This vintage jacket has a stunning organic texture that feels like stepping into a quiet forest clearing or looking out across a lush marshland. The pattern is a finely detailed landscape of greens, golds, and soft earth tones, creating a misty meadow effect made of thousands of tiny, speckled strokes. Up close, it reveals incredible depth with a painterly quality that shifts as the light moves, giving the fabric a natural flow and movement. The lining has a fan pattern that pairs beautifully with the earthy exterior.

Hidden pocket in the front - perfect to hold glasses keys, or other light items.

E
ach Japanique Jacket starts out as a vintage michiyuki, which is a narrow jacket with a deep, square neckline and snap closures, meant to be worn on top of a kimono. Most vintage michiyuki won't fit larger frames, so we modified the traditional garment slightly by removing the snaps and tacking the panels back to create lapels. The result is an open, flowing jacket that can fit sizes 10-16. Japanique Jackets can also be crossed over and belted on a smaller-sized person. These are all one-of-a-kind jackets, so sizing will vary slightly, see measurements given.
