Hōmongi – Washable Kimono – Gold Willows & Bridge – Green×Purple Gradient – 153/64/53
✿ Description
A striking, washable synthetic Hōmongi designed for impact on stage and in photos: a bold, all-gold motif of weeping willows, flowing water, and a symbolic bridge set against a dramatic green→purple gradient. A subtle, checkered rinzu-like texture in the base adds depth and sheen. Unlike typical hōmongi, there is no multicolor detailing—only metallic gold for a clean, graphic statement.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if a kimono will fit me?
Height: Length (身丈) ≈ your height ±5 cm (you adjust length with the ohashori fold).
Yuki (裄): Neck center → wrist bone. The kimono’s yuki should be close (±2 cm usually fine).
Body width: Maehaba (front) + Ushirohaba (back). As a rough guide, this total should exceed half your hip circumference for good overlap.

Komon: All-over small pattern; casual to smart-casual.
Iromuji: Solid color; versatile/tea practice; semi-formal.
