Reversible Tan Floral Kantha Kimono Jacket

A reversible short kantha kimono in warm tan, printed with large white blooms and pomegranate-style fruit.

The base is tan cotton, block printed in white with grey outlines. Big open flowers and round seeded fruits sit among curling vines and serrated leaves, and the pattern runs over the body, sleeves and collar. Kantha running stitch is worked by hand over the whole jacket in dark thread, which breaks up the print with small dashes and gives the fabric texture. Both sides are finished, so you are really getting two jackets in one.

How to wear it
