The texture and beauty of the pattern of the fabric of the remade obi.
The customer had her mother's formal kimono tailored to her own size.
It's a beautiful kimono with intricate tie-dyeing.

I took the plunge and washed the tsumugi silk kimono myself.
I desperately ironed it to try and get it flat.
It's not quite turning out the way I wanted, though.
Since I want to wear it often as everyday wear,
I had it made with a partial lining (without lining in the body).

Dyed purple

No one wears it anymore. The pattern is too flashy as it is.
I learned that it could be dyed in a variety of colors, so I asked them to re-tailor it.
The Yuzen dyeing that my grandmother chose has turned it into a beautiful visiting kimono that is still fully wearable even 50 years later.
