This listing is for a vintage Japanese haori jacket made for a young girl. To learn more about these type of kimono read below.

A cheerful confetti of color makes this vintage girl's haori jacket as sweet as a handful of candy! Delicate ro silk features a playful scattering of small, pinked-edge blossoms with vibrant red, yellow, turquoise blue, and pink petals surrounding tiny green dotted centers, all against a crisp white background. The sheer, subtly striped weave adds airy texture, while a soft pink partial lining and matching front ties complete this charming piece.

Ro silk is a lightweight, open-weave silk traditionally associated with summer garments. Its delicate, regularly spaced openings allow air to circulate, making it particularly suitable for warm-weather wear.

This haori has a 6" tuck at the waist and a 3" tuck at each shoulder. These can be taken out to allow for more length and width if desired.

Children's haori jackets are charming miniature versions of the traditional Japanese outer jacket, worn over a kimono to provide an extra layer of warmth, modesty, or decorative flair. Girls' haori were often made in colorful fabrics with playful floral or seasonal patterns and could be worn for family outings, celebrations, festivals, or everyday occasions, depending on the material and design. Unlike formal kimono reserved for special ceremonies, haori offered a versatile way to dress up an outfit while allowing freedom of movement. Vintage children's haori are less commonly encountered than adult versions, making them delightful finds for collectors of Japanese textiles and traditional children's clothing.

Vintage Japanese children's garments make eye-catching displays in spaces too small to accommodate a full-sized kimono. We offer display rods (click the tab below) if you're going to display this kimono.

If purchasing this to be worn, please check the measurements given carefully.  Children's kimono run small!
