Santa Fe Kimono Burgundy Wash prior to first wearThis one of a kind kimono is made from a vintage light weight meisen silk kimono. The kimono features the kasuri (ikat or pre dyeing) pattern throughout and would have been considered a casual kimono. I have taken inspiration from the ikat pattern and embellished with oversized geometric sequins along the collar and on the patch pockets I added. I have also created a gathered sleeve and added a red silk lining. one size ikat pattern flutter sleeve
