I made a camisole dress by unraveling a Meisen kimono. The original kimono is (photos 13-16). It showed no signs of wear and was in very good condition. Since Meisen can fade when washed with water, I only disinfected it with a high-temperature iron after unraveling it. The black base with red and white stripes is striking. The tape in the middle has a cute floral pattern and looks like Tyrolean tape. Although it's thin because it's Meisen, it's a color and pattern I'd like you to wear in the fall and winter. It has a moderate luster and a nice firmness, which is typical of Meisen. The fabric has a moderate thickness. To prevent the overall shape from looking bulky, I put a thin elastic band only in the back yoke to make it look neat. I added a slit, so I think you can wear it comfortably (photo 4). Kimono made of silk is very precious. It's difficult to unravel a kimono, but it's wonderful to be able to enjoy the feel of Japanese fabric in everyday life. It's also a good point that you can enjoy the unique colors and combinations of Japan. I enjoy dressmaking as a hobby, specializing in straight stitching. I remake old kimonos and furoshiki (wrapping cloths) such as Tsumugi, Meisen, and Komon. Since it's handmade by an amateur, there may be thread holes, remaining threads, small scratches, and fold lines that cannot be removed even with ironing. Thank you for your understanding and consideration. ✳︎Please avoid washing as much as possible, and after wearing, hang it on a hanger and let it breathe. ✳︎There is no lining, so please wear a petticoat, etc. ✳︎Items other than the camisole dress are for photography purposes.
