1930s / 1940s vintage KIMONO robe purple gray waves Haori jacket OS
Stunning vintage Haori kimono with silk lined sleeves.
Unsure of exact age- assuming 1930s - 1940s and beautifully made, this elegant piece would be wonderful as a robe or as a jacket, even over classic separates or a simple dress as a formal/ evening jacket.
Shades of muted purples and steely grays with touch of white and black strokes, the fabric looks and feels like rayon.
Sleeves are lined in a pale floral print silk.
Haori is a hip length kimono, usually left open as an outer kimono.
Dropped shoulder seams, wide kimono sleeves.
Two hidden cords (one on each interior placket edge at chest height) could be used to interally secure the garment; this could also be worn open, as shown, or belted with more of a traditional obi- style belt.
Condition is excellent, no staining, holes or damage.
Of a wonderful weight and a beautiful fabric, this is an amzing piece of wearable art.
Measurements:
24" shoulder seam to shoulder seam (dropped seams)
45" chest (22.5" across the back, armpit to armpit, please allow room for belting and overlap if desired), and note the longer underarm area openings as common on traditionally styled kimonos
approximately 47" hips
32" length
12.5" sleeves (from dropped shoulder seam)
