'Kimono and Obi' 1960

These pictures are from a 'Kimono and Obi' supplement to  Shufunotomo ("Housewife's Friend') magazine from November 1960.

Customers are often surprised by the very fine wool kimono fabrics we have in the shop. They're often in great 1960's and 70's designs.  I'd love a bolt of this red and black marbling effect wool - though I'm not sure that the kimono is a great success with the model's sweet Audrey Hepburn look....


A couple more wool kimono....


And some wonderful coats...




A more traditional look for the young girls...
