Genuine vintage Japanese kimono.
This is called a HAORI.
One-of-a-kind-vintage.
There are two types of Japanese kimonos traditionally worn in the summer: "ro" and "sha." Both are made of silk. (Some recent ones have synthetic fibers. ) Kimono fabrics of "ro" and "sha" are sheer and beautiful.
This fabric is "sha."
It features a beautiful transparent material.
I carefully handpicked this piece, which is in very good condition for a vintage garment.

El kimono llegó bien empaquetado en un bonito envoltorio pero me ha decepcionado la textura tan dura de la tela y la rigidez de la prenda. Esperaba algo de seda y parece muy sintetico
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
I'm sorry the texture wasn't what you were expecting. This haori is made from vintage Japanese silk gauze ('Sha'), a fabric traditionally used for summer kimono. It has an open, sheer weave that gives it a naturally crisp, firmly structured feel — quite different from smooth satin silk. That slightly stiff hand is characteristic of authentic summer gauze rather than a sign of synthetic material. Black gauze with a red lining like this was widely woven in Kyoto and was a classic choice for summer haori of its era.
Your comment is genuinely helpful, and I will revise the product description so this distinctive texture is clearer for future customers. As with all vintage textiles, I identify fabrics by their weave and construction rather than laboratory analysis — so while this piece has every characteristic of traditional silk gauze, I am always transparent that exact fiber content cannot be certified without formal testing.
Thank you again for your honesty.
Muchas gracias por tomarse el tiempo de compartir su opinión.Lamento que la textura no fuera la que esperaba. Este haori está confeccionado con seda vintage japonesa translúcida ('Sha'), un tejido tradicionalmente usado para los kimonos de verano. Tiene un ligamento abierto y translúcido que le confiere un tacto naturalmente fresco, firme y estructurado, muy distinto del satén de seda liso. Esa ligera rigidez es propia de la auténtica seda translúcida de verano, y no una señal de material sintético. El tejido negro translúcido con forro rojo como este se elaboraba ampliamente en Kioto y era una elección clásica para los haori de verano de su época.Su comentario me resulta de verdadera ayuda, y revisaré la descripción del producto para que esta textura tan característica quede más clara para futuros clientes. Como sucede con todos los textiles vintage, identifico los tejidos por su ligamento y su confección, y no mediante análisis de laboratorio; por eso, aunque esta prenda presenta todas las características de la tradicional seda translúcida, siempre indico con transparencia que la composición exacta de la fibra no puede certificarse sin un análisis formal.Le agradezco de nuevo su sinceridad.
Let customers speak for us
from 129 reviewsMy partner received this as a gift: firstly the quality of construction and choice of material is really exceptional, which having followed Machiko for a long time was not a surprise, but is far more evident in person than photographs can show. The packaging and presentation when it arrived was a wonderful addition, and the care in its preparation is really perfect and a delight.
I couldn't stop staring at it when I first received it!!! It is SO gorgeous and the skirt is so well made with very easy instruction on how to wear it- the attention to detail goes all the way into the packaging!!! Machiko san was so lovely and attentive, I genuinely appreciate all her hard work and her team <3 Will definitely be on the lookout for another ;)
I love it. It arrived packaged well and with care.
The piece itself is extremely beautiful and well made. I tried it on and it fit perfectly and my family and friends love it & I can style it different ways.
Thank you Machiko, I will definitely order more in the future.
Been trying to get my hands on one of these and it is AMAZING!! LOVE!
The shipping time was perfect, and I was so touched by the thoughtful, beautifully prepared packaging and the heartfelt note.
The fabric is absolutely beautiful, and the design is truly breathtaking.
Buy it now! You won’t regret it.!!
This skirt looks more beautiful than in the photos, and so well put together!
The Kimono looks and feels beautiful, and the packaging makes it an ideal gift (to self, or someone else). Great service and response time, very clear on what to expect - even reached out before sending the kimono when the fabric was different from described, to make sure I was happy moving forward. Would 100% buy again from this shop!
Meraviglioso! Di presenza il mio haori è ancora più bello e raffinato. Ho acquistato un'opera d'arte capace di emozionarmi solo al tatto. La confezione rispecchia le sapienti mani giapponesi. Grazie Machiko, non vedo l'ora di comprare altri capolavori.
Hello, I'm delighted with the experience. The haori is beautiful, and the packaging was lovely. Everything arrived in perfect condition.
Thank you so much, it's been a pleasure.
Absolutely stunning and unique piece. Will definitely be adding more
To my wardrobe!
Beautiful material and beautifully made. Arrived quickly. Wrapped with care, lovely!
I've always loved the beauty of kimono fabric, so I've bought nearly 10 kimono jackets (Haori羽織). This is my first time buying an upcycled
Furisode振袖, and it's absolutely dreamy. The weather in Taiwan is still too hot right now, but I'll wear it out on dates with friends once it cools down a bit! Thank you so much for your upcycling work, and it allows us foreigners to also experience the beauty of kimonos!
I ordered for my wife. Not only she was thrilled, but so was I. I have never seen such amazing attention to detail, care and love in a product. I was truly moved by this work of art. The incredible care with which the kimono was wrapped... And the kimono itself, absolutely amazing! We enjoyed it wonderfully.
“expectations met”. that would not be a fair statement. yes, the object of desire was precisely as promoted. but upon receipt there was a personalised message in a beautiful box. the feeling of being part of really good venture. upcycling. such joy! a meaningful purchase.
yet the most rewarding was to see my wife wearing it, enjoying it.
Everything about shopping with Machiko Komono was great. From the thoughtful packaging, personal letter, the fit and the quality of the skirt, all of it was so well crafted. I have already recommended this site to friends who saw my skirt.
I love my skirt so much and thank you for providing me a lovely experience. I cannot recommend enough
