This is a gathered skirt made from a kimono of genuine Oshima Tsumugi silk. *I apologize for the poor photos. Buyers often say, "It's much more beautiful in person." *Please see the images for the size. Please allow for some error. Hemming is free. (It can be made shorter than the listed length, but not longer.) *The waist is fully elastic. You can wear it in winter if you layer warm innerwear. *Please understand that this is a handmade item, not a perfect ready-made product, and that it is made by an amateur. Thank you.
