The obiage is a soft pink that ties in well with the obi, with a rinzu design of sakura and geometric lines. I tied it in a little bow for more sweetness and softness. I&#8217;m honestly not sure if the haneri counts as rinzu, the weave is much more textured and raised than anything else I own. But the design is woven, not painted or embroidered, so I ran with it. As for the obijime, the only rinzu one I own is an all-black mofuku piece, which felt too heavy against the black obi so I just went with a soft pink round braid.<\/p>\n<p>The outfit is quite simple, but I think it does a fantastic job of showing off all the gorgeous woven design and texture that is rinzu silk!<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Items used in this coordination<\/h4>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 20%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-11151 gallery-columns-5 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/iromuji-7.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/iromuji-7-125x125.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-7803\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/iromuji-7-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/iromuji-7-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/iromuji-7-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-7803'>\n\t\t\t\tVintage Purple\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/nagoya-34.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/nagoya-34-125x125.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-7894\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/nagoya-34-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/nagoya-34-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/nagoya-34-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-7894'>\n\t\t\t\tStencilled Kiku\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/haneri-14.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/haneri-14-125x125.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-3407\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-3407'>\n\t\t\t\tTextured Kiku\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/obiage-10.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/obiage-10-125x125.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-5805\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-5805'>\n\t\t\t\tSalmon Rinzu\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/obijime-18.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/obijime-18-125x125.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-7312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/obijime-18-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/obijime-18-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/obijime-18-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-7312'>\n\t\t\t\tPink Round\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rinzu, \u7db8\u5b50, silk damask Rinzu is like jacquard, a beautiful tone-on-tone pattern achieved by weaving techniques only.
