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

A beautiful marbled green and brown with a seigaiha (overlapping wave) jacquard design. Synthetic, but silky feel. Green momiji (maple leaves) on the lining.

Don't miss the secret pocket, it's hidden in the right front panel seam! 

Each Japanique Jacket starts with a vintage michiyuki, which is a narrow jacket with snap closures that was meant to be worn on top of a kimono. Most vintage michiyuki won't fit larger frames, so we modified the traditional garment slightly (removed the snaps, tacked the panels back to create lapels) to create a roomier, open, flowing jacket that can fit sizes 12-18 or possibly larger. These are all one-of-a-kind jackets, so sizing will vary slightly. See video below on the various types of kimono jackets.
