“Japanese women are deferential creatures trained to arrange slices of raw fish into peony blossoms, correct?Sorry....the facts are otherwise.When the typical Japanesesalaryman staggers off the bullet train from Tokyo, he hands his entire paycheck over to his wife.She decides what car they buy.What school the kids go to. How they invest. Where they take vacations.
When Harvard-educated MasakoOwada married Crown Prince Naruhito recently, her suggestions on how things ought to be run sent traditionalists into shokku.Here\'s 23-year-old Nagisa Araki,who started a wildly successful discount fashion chain: \"We used to have several male employees, but young men mature slowly and often can\'t take the bold steps the job requires.\"
Japanese women know what they want. And one thing they want is a kímono like this. Lined cotton, classic floral pattern, ankle length, flared sleeves and self-fabric belt, plus something revolutionary: pockets.There\'s no telling how far you can go when you don\'t have to carry allyour stuff tucked into your sleeves.Size: One size fits most.

A note regarding vintage clothing: it is rarely perfect. It has history, was, most likely, lovingly worn and cared for and endured far more years than most of us - in most cases 70 to 100 plus years. We try to detail every imperfection, but some seam separations, discoloring and stains may escape us; however we strive to repair and clean these wonderful designs from the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s ( I rarely dabble in post 1970 clothing). If you want perfect, I suggest you look elsewhere for newer clothing. If you want wonderful echoes of past designs and their attention to detail, we may have items that will appeal to you.Most of our listings, if not new, are repaired or mended to the best of our abilities and noted within the description. Most vintage items are professionally dry cleaned or laundered by an eco-friendly green on premises cleaner. As a result, listings prices often reflect this worthwhile investment in these garments. Their history warrants nothing less.
