Both the tunic and pants close with back

Really stunning and in excellent condition

Over that was hand applied beading

Note the shoulders are cut wide and meant to slouch off the shoulders

The waist has a bit of extra definition with the contrasting banding that is again used on each cuff

1950s Metallic Floral Design Silk Kimono designer-michael-novarese Both the tunic and pantsA stunning kimono with a very unusual print! It is a chic combination of blacks and metallic silvers whose threads have pale pastel colors cast through them. The design covers the back quite extensively and runs down each sleeve and across the front. The base is black and the interior is lined in a solid black with a pale cream silk inset in the upper half and through the sleeves of the interior. The work is very fine and it is just so unusual.
