This dazzling wedding robe is a gorgeous piece of Japanese design, complete with shining rainbows and decorative tassels. What a fantastic kimono to display!
The vivid sunset sky in the background swirls upon a royal blue sky, the bright orange standing out like the sun. Glorious golden pine of red, yellow and green float with elegant white cranes, their feathers executed with intricate detail.
Padding along the bottom hem gives this uchikake shape, while the decorative tassels of the sleeves add extra flare.
