Kimono fabric is quite narrow compared to normal fabric which is sold be the metre, this is because its made purely for kimono construction. Unlike western clothes which require lots of pattern pieces and styles, kimono are constructed much more simply and only the collar requires cutting out all other pieces are just cut to length and sewn together. Please check you are happy with the width before you purchase.

If you are making your own kimono please note you would need a complete bolt for a traditional kimono or haori jacket. Unlike the west you buy from a bolt but in Japan you buy a whole bolt which can be around 900 cm for haori, 1200 cm for kimono or 2000 cm for matching kimono and haori.

With vintage or secondhand fabrics on some occasions you may find a small imperfection which is to be expected with these types of fabrics. If it was a significant imperfection I would mention it in the listing.

Items are not washable, please consult professional dry cleaners for advice if required or do a test sample before washing.
