On the back of this kimono, a small rustic gate welcomes the stroller into a beautiful Japanese garden colored in cinnamon, olive green and other warm shades of autumn.
Chrysanthemums, peonies and plum flowers are in full bloom, with some picked up and beautifully arranged in a basket on a wheel cart.
The selected flowers are intricately embroidered with soft silk threads and gold to add a touch of shimmer. The beautiful garden scene is continued on the lower lining, and the upper lining is a fine silk of vibrant red color.
The top to bottom of the romantic flowing sleeves measure 41 inches.
