BOARDER FABRIC: A really gorgeous vintage Japanese kimono silk which I've sewn to the main base fabric as a border. The fabric has a luminous grey background which absolutely simmers in the light and is woven with lovely colourful flowers.
* The silk has been unpicked from a vintage traditional kimono and reused in this design, the silk is still in great condition.

CARE: Dry clean only, the embroidered silk and delicate texture of the silk means this garment cant be washed by machine.Hand-washing works just as well though and once dry Iron on a medium heat either on the front or back. Why wash it anyway, this jacket is very loose it really doesn't need regular washing at all! Get in contact of you need further instructions or have any questions.

Iron on a medium to high heat either on the front or back. If you iron on the silk side I would recommend using a low heat setting.
