Misses' Kimono Jacket & Belt
By Melissa Watson For Palmer Pletsch
Versatile kimono jacket. Could be a summer cover up on the beach, or a casual jacket, plus more!
Loose fitting lined jackets (do not meet at center front) have length variations. A, B:Belt. A, C; Side slits.
Melissa says:
“I love this classic kimono style to be worn in a modern way! The long sleeve, short length robe view is a perfect at home style that can be made for the bath, OR in the right fabric the longer version can we worn as a long jacket over some leather pants! The short sleeve and shorter length can be tied as a top over pants for a fun summer look.
This top is perfect for a sheer or lightweight silk or rayon. I love a silk or poly chiffon or a crepe back satin for something with more weight. I wouldn’t use anything stiffer than that!"
