This listing is for a woman's Japanese summer kimono - called a yukata. Learn more about this type of kimono below.

Like a moonlit garden bursting into bloom, this striking vintage yukata features oversized summer flowers scattered across a rich dark blue background, accented with sunny yellow centers and touches of coral red and fresh green. The bold floral motif evokes vitality, happiness, and the fleeting beauty of summer blossoms, while the dramatic scale creates a cheerful, eye-catching look.

There are signs of age with some light mottling on the right front sleeve, see last photo.

This kimono does not come with an obi or sash, but you can add one of our simple cotton sashes -- click the option on the right.

These are unlined cotton robes usually worn to casual gatherings or for summer festivals. Yukata are also sometimes offered to guests in Japanese inns and hotels. Yukata are popular these days as bath robes, beach or poolside cover ups, or for Japanese festivals or sushi parties anywhere in the world.
