While shorter varieties such as the Michiyuki have a practical, coat-like button closure to protect the precious undergarments from dirt and the elements, ceremonial overcoats such as the heavy Uchikake are royal masterpieces with no closure that hang open gracefully like a cloak. Crafted from the highest quality materials—such as heavy mulberry silk, lush brocade and lustrous satin—these overcoats often feature breathtaking, hand-woven gold threads and continuous symbolic motifs. Whether it is a formal bridal coat with a padded train or an elegant, everyday protective coat; the kimono overcoat combines sublime Japanese textile art with regal layering and a monumental appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/www.tormino.com\/collections\/kimono-overcoats.oembed","provider":"Tormino","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
