A komonkimono decorated with swathes of grass fronds in shades of white & beige on a pale mauve-grey background.
This lovely komon (small print) kimono has a dense all-overdesign with a white lining and lavender silk hakkake (the inner cuff and hem of the lining). This lovely kimono is made from a synthetic fabric, possibly rayon which is a common silk substitute. It has been decorated & hand-stitched in the same way as any other traditional kimono.
Komon, literally ko (small) mon (pattern) are casual kimono worn for going out or casual gatherings that often have a small all-over print, but may also have stripes, checks or larger all over patterns.
