Kimono dress gown and string belt upcycled from Genuine vintage Japanese kimono
This dress gown is made of a vintage silk kimono.
I would suggest a style that you wear a Vintage kimono as you would wear a trench coat.
I and the sewing team upcycled this kimono piece.
This is a one-of-a-kind piece created by a small team of handmade artists.
Kimono gowns were hand-sewn and tailored. It took a very long time.(Belt is machine-sewn)
I carefully handpicked this kimono piece, which is in very good condition for a vintage garment.
*Small black spot on back and right sleeve(Less than 2mm) Please see the last pic.
*Original kimono : Dating is contemporary.
*This products will be sent for professional kimono cleaning after purchase.
Please allow about 10 business day from order to shipment.

*Please understand that there may be stains and slight damage common in vintage fabrics as all of our clothes are made by either partial or full disassembly of the original kimono.
*Kimonos can be broadly divided into two fabrics types.
They are "yarn-dyed kimonos" = "ORI" and "post-dyed kimonos" = "SOME".
Yarn-dyed fabrics”ORI” are fabrics that are dyed and woven while the threads are still in the yarn.
Typical examples are "tsumugi", “omeshi”, and "cotton kasuri".
Tsumugi is especially popular among modern Japanese people, and many fabrics have simple designs.
Post-dyed kimonos”SOME” refers to kimono woven with white threads without dyeing, to which "komon dyeing," "Bingata dyeing," "Yuzen dyeing," and other processes are applied.
I feel that the kimono that people overseas imagine is like a “SOME” kimono.
This is a fabric called “紬 Tsumugi"
[Care] Dry clean.

Let customers speak for us
My 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
