Homongi is a high-class formal Kimono for official visits that became very popular in Meiji period among upper-class females. It is commonly worn as a festive garment for ceremonies and parties by both married and unmarried women. Linked patterns on the chest, shoulder, sleeves and family crests are distinct characteristics of Homongi Kimono.
Please keep in mind that female Kimonos are supposed to fit long. You will need to adjust the length to your size by tying with Obi belt.
Due to the nature of being a vintage textile product, the item might come with partial wrinkles, fold lines and stains. Most of such conditions are either depicted in the gallery photos or otherwise illustrated within the product descriptions. Please keep in mind that, though I try my honest best in reporting any blemishes, it is impossible to locate and present every single one of them. By purchasing the products from my shop, it is considered that you acknowledge and accept such condition.
Rare, but any possible slight odor from purchased wardrobe originates from Japanese storing and preservation means of silk wardrobe products and is not related to aging or molding. My wardrobes are generally in excellent condition otherwise explicitly expressed in description section and any orders will fade away over the time.
Most of my wardrobes are made of luxury textiles and are not meant to be hand/machine washed. Please research and consult your local dry cleaners for their experiences/expertise in handling high quality fabrics for best result.
