The story:
Kimonos don't always have to be floral or printed. We think a good one in one solid colour and cute little embroidery could work wonders with more outfits.
We like this vintage black 1940s/1950s black kimono shirt jacket could work just as well with her wide sleeves. The shirt/jacket collar gives it a little more formality and the embroidered gulls are a jolly good spoon of maple syrup on top of a sweet treat ;)
Cut wide so it could fit anyone from a M to a XL (but if you like to wear your jackets specifically loose or not-so-loose, please do refer to the measurements below).
