Kimono Gold | Vintage 1970s 1980s Kimono Sleeve style Gold gilded florals Dress with POCKETS
Kimono sleeves anyone? We love them. They hide our getting-flabbier arms :D
This comes in such a flattering darker colour of bronze, browns and blacks. AND once again the ever-sought-after POCKETS!
The flowers (Sakuras, peonies, Dahlias?) are gilded/outlined in gold. This is only the second fabric we found with this detailing and we are absolutely loving it!
There are slight shoulder pads but you could easily unpick them.
Pinned?: No.
