I deconstructed a Meisen kimono and made a long skirt. There are areas where I sewed pieces together to adjust the length and width (see photos 13 and 14, center). Please confirm. Therefore, I am selling it at a lower price than skirt 206. The original kimono was in very good condition (photos 15-18). I did a test wash and the color didn't bleed, so I quickly washed it with a detergent for delicate clothes (photo 19) before cutting the fabric. It looks whitish due to the lighting, but it's black. The black fabric has a pattern of red and white intersecting lines forming a tortoise shell design. When it was a kimono, it looked like a classic pattern, but when it became a skirt with darts, it suddenly became modern. The fabric has a nice sheen, and the firmness characteristic of Meisen is also lovely. I put three long tucks in the front and back to reduce the volume. Although there is plenty of gathering, thanks to the tucks, the waist and hips look neat. I enjoy sewing clothes using only straight stitches. I upcycle old kimonos, obi belts, and furoshiki cloths, such as Tsumugi, Meisen, and Komon. Please consider purchasing if you understand that there may be remaining threads, small holes, stains from used items, distortions, and double stitching. ✳︎Try to avoid washing as much as possible. After wearing, hang it on a hanger to let it breathe. ✳︎Everything except the skirt is for photography purposes. ✳︎There is no lining. Please use a petticoat when wearing. Material: Likely silk Size Skirt length: Approximately 79cm Waist: I have inserted 2cm wide elastic, assuming a free size. It is temporarily fixed at approximately 66cm. ✳︎If you are concerned about the waist elastic size, please let me know in the comments. I will adjust it before shipping. If there is no contact, I will ship it assuming a free size. Skirt hem circumference: Approximately 166cm The torso's height is 160cm Waist: 65cm. Please use this as a reference. #Meisen #HaoriRemake #Handmade #KimonoRemake
