Top – Zara // Kimono – made by me // Jeans – Dittos // Boots – Threadsence // Necklace – Vanessa Mooney // Sunnies – Lace Affair
I saw this kimono I loved at a shop, but unfortunately at $200 there was no way I was going to afford it anytime soon. Instead, I pulled it out and inspected it. I reverse engineered it in my head and unwrapped what the material looked like in my head. When finished, I realized that it was actually super easy – possibly the easiest kimono in the world to make – and left that store for the fabric store.
Twelve dollars and 20 minutes at the machine later, I had this. Much better.
