I unraveled a Meisen silk haori and made a camisole. The original haori was in very clean condition with no stains. (Photos 11-13) Since Meisen silk can fade when washed with water, I only performed high-temperature sterilization with an iron. It features a large white floral pattern boldly arranged on a brownish-crimson background. The petals have subtle emerald green accents, creating a very lovely design. The fabric is slightly thin, but the characteristic sheen and crispness of Meisen silk feel good. To prevent the overall silhouette from looking bulky, I added thin elastic only to the back yoke for a streamlined look. Pure silk kimonos are very precious. While unraveling a kimono is a lot of work, it's wonderful to be able to enjoy the feel of Japanese fabric in everyday life. It's also great to be able to enjoy the unique colors and combinations that Japan offers. I enjoy sewing with straight stitches as a hobby. I remake old kimonos and furoshiki cloths such as Tsumugi, Meisen, and Komon. As this is a handmade item by an amateur, there may be thread holes, remaining threads, small scratches, or creases that cannot be removed even with ironing. Please consider this if you understand these points. * Please avoid washing as much as possible. After wearing, hang it on a hanger and allow it to air out. * Everything other than the camisole is for photography purposes.
