A new silk kimono summer dress on Etsy

This is an orange silk kimono fabric
with beautiful Japanese traditional patterns.
I have used different silk kimono fabrics to add uniqueness to it.

You can tie the string at the front,

or at the back.

antique kimono upcycling

I had collected quite a lot of antique silk kimono fabrics
and they were just sitting in my shelf for so long
that I have decided to make summer apron dress out of them.

Hope they will find their new home!

This one had few discoloured patches from ageing,
so I have covered it with an embroidery.
It made it more special!

This is a gorgeous shibori silk fabric, where each dots are hand tied.

I only have one for each pattern so it will be an ONLY ONE item
and I can never make a dress with a same fabric pattern.
