This listing is for a vintage michiyuki jacket, meant to be worn over a kimono. These typically have a square neckline, but older versions were longer and had styled collars, like this one.  Inner ties to keep the hemline straight, snap closure, and a hidden pocket on the right front panel are the specific features of a michiyuki - michi means "street" and yuki refers to "going out".

This michiyuki features a subtle tone-on-tone leaf motif jacquard. The stylized leaves are interwoven and repeated giving the pattern a wavy look from afar. The black silk is lightweight but lined so it could be used in any season. 

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

Michiyuki are a narrow garment, fastened with snaps that will open if the fit is too tight. (The measurement we give is the jacket snapped closed, so your hips and waist measurement should be several inches smaller than the hips/waist measurement we give.)
