Elegant Autumn Kimono - Light Purple with Willow and Swallows, Gradient Dye, Long Length Length (from back): 160cm Sleeve Length: 52cm Sleeve Opening: 22cm 裄丈: 68cm Product Description Thank you for viewing. This is an autumn kimono with a delicate, light purple base, reminiscent of pale wisteria or lavender, featuring a pattern of willow branches and charming swallows. The swallow motif is considered an auspicious design, symbolizing the arrival of spring and, because they stay in their nests, domestic safety and happiness. Type: Appears to be a "tsukesage" or "houmongi" (semi-formal kimono) based on the pattern. Color: The upper part is a light purple, with a gradient dye (**"bokashi-zome"**) towards a whitish, pale color at the hem, giving it a modern feel. Pattern: Willow branches drawn with soft lines and several swallows are arranged around the hem (near the lining). Similar patterns are also on the sleeves. Fabric: The fabric has a crepe-like texture (uneven surface) with a supple feel. Occasions: Suitable for semi-formal occasions (tea ceremonies, theater, dinners, entrance ceremonies, graduation ceremonies, etc.).
