We searched comfortable textile for both a single layer of kimono(hitoe) or lined kimono(awase), and ordered an artisan who can dye a sensitive Yuzen to create this tsukesage. Tsukesage is one of dyeing patterns which is rising from hem to shoulder. This tsukesage turns into gorgeous and graceful kimono by tailoring with Kin-koma* embroidery and using gold leaves which give floridness and a three dimensional appearance. It is also chic with a subtle nuance of colors. *Kin-koma embroidery is one of embroidered methods that embroider thick gold thread.
