Fresh blue ro synthetic kimono with a classic pattern, looks like patch-work, all " different" fabrics with a different traditional pattern. Some sayagata, some asanoha etc.Again the black silk nagoya obi in a course weave .
Lace tabi and soft lilac zori with embroidered straps.
Dolly is wearing a "new" antique ro silk kimono with yellow nagoya obi, both antique silk, both with bush-clover pattern both bought in Tokyo.
I found this kimono in a small store in Harajuku, but was doubting to buy her.I left the store and went on.
In another store I saw this cute yellow nagoya and thought, she's perfect for that kimono!
So, I bought the (very cheap) obi and went back to the first store and checked... Yes I liked the combination and also bought the kimono.
Feeling happy *sigh*
I found another treasure for my (antique) collection

Your site is wonderful!
I thought you might enjoy this, it's a visit of the Sujiya-Cho Machiya in Kyoto. It's a mix of traditional Japanese and Western interior design, quite neat:
