This beautiful Open Weave Kimono in Navy Blue is perfect for spring in to summer. It can be dressed up or down, and looks great worn over everything from jeans to sun dresses. It looks great when paired with our Nautical Blue Scarf.


The kimono is made from super-soft rayon thread in a classic navy blue. It has an open weave texture and the fabric is subtly heathered to give it texture. It was woven on the traditional blackstrap loom.


This fair trade kimono was created by La Estrella, a group of eight Kaqchiquel Mayan weavers from the rural community of ChuaCruz, Guatemala. The artisan group was formed in the early 1980's in order to support the widows who lost their husbands during the Civil War. They work on backstrap to create beautiful accessories and homewares. With the purchase of this item, you are helping the women in this cooperative to support their families.
