I have loved this kimono for over a decade, ever since I was lucky enough to wear it during a fashion show at a convention. You remember conventions, right? When thousands of people gathered together, packed themselves into small rooms, hugged, laughed, and shared common interests? Funny how alien that seems in our current world! They&#8217;ll come back eventually, though.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, Naomi dressed me in this stunning chocolate brown furisode with all kinds of gentle foliage and gold butterflies, and I was <em>smitten.<\/em> Fast forward a few years to when she&#8217;s thinning out her collection and now it&#8217;s come to live with me!
