Kimono style

I recently added this stunner to my Etsy shop. It's a decorative scarf made from two different vintage Japanese kimono fabrics that I have pieced together to create a totally unique item.


The main section of the scarf uses a silk kimono fabric in soft shades of pinks, blue and greens with a floral motif.


I've added a geometric design kimono to the ends of the scarf in shades of deep pink and white which adds extra drama to the scarf.


The scarf is long and can be tied many different ways. I'm loving this oversized bow.


Look up close and you will see the detail involved in the floral print, with a mixture of blossoms, chrysanthemums and maple leaves - all traditional Japanese design motifs.


The scarf looks great loosely draped around the neck and can accessorise so many different outfits.


The strong print at each end of the scarf adds drama.


This scarf makes a great gift for a Japan lover.
