Imagine enjoying afternoon tea in a historic residence, dressed in a *yukata*. Inspired by this very scene, we have curated an ensemble that transports you to a bygone era, imbued with a sense of Western-influenced elegance. A refined, lightweight summer silk kimono is paired with a vibrant pink-red *obi* (sash), creating a look that harmonizes traditional Japanese grace with a touch of nostalgic, romantic charm—evoking a feeling that is both timeless and evocative. From a chrysanthemum brooch repurposed as an *obi-dome* (sash clasp) to a delicate necklace styled as an *obi* accessory, every piece has been chosen with heartfelt care. These carefully selected items will add a story that transcends time to your own special moments this summer.

◆ Product Features and Appeal

This sophisticated coordination gracefully marries traditional craftsmanship with a charming Western-influenced aesthetic.

The obi can be effortlessly styled using a simple flap knot secured to the obijime, creating lovely volume and a more opulent silhouette. Accentuated with a repurposed fashion belt and vintage accessories, this complete set invites you to step out in an utterly unique and graceful style.
