Yurie looks so calm...suits any kimono.
Blue hair and pink cherry blossoms! I like it.
Flower and kimono made by me...
Percy in mellow autumn colors wearing leaf kanzashi.
Hand dyed leaves! In doll scale. This takes a lot of practice and concentration, but I love the soft glowing effect.
This kimono is gorgeous, and not too busy at all. The soft color gradation and shimmering silk is my favorite part of it.
Surrounded by handmade flowers and one little curious crane...all made by me of my handdyed silk.
She's still letting me know what her name will be...she's a cutie. ♥

When my friend, Turbow ask me to do this dress for her, I'm so glad because I love her girl (PAM) and I love to see her girl wearing my dress.
Hope she like it ^ ^
Heena in red kimono with lavender accents.
I made the kimono for a custom order, technically for Feeple65, who has a bit larger chest than my Heena, but similar other proportions.
Heena is wearing it like Furisode rather than like Uchikake this time, so you can see the details of the pattern of the over-kimono (uchikake), which are quite lovely.

Wearing handmade cotton yukata / (an informal kimono) and silk hairpins, because...because.
All handmade by me.
Dolls are PukiFee's.
Yurie and Ruan love the beautifully smelling wisteria. Tis pair is also pastel. (Custom order.)
The silk wisteria hairpin is handmade by me. So is the mauve kimono, both obi. But the green kimono I picked the silk and a friend made me a while ago!
Thistle is wearing the mellow autumn kimono now; the amber (or mustard 😁) suits her very nicely.
Lovely, detailed leaves for Thistle! And a pipe like one oiran would have used.
Finished the set for Enmusubi and Enkiri! So pleased to make these for the artist who gave these two dolls life.
Enkiri is in tapioca resin, and Enmusubi is in picot blue resin.
Handmade kimono and handmade tsumamizaiku (the kanzashi hairpins). Both are plum blossoms, but in great colors-- pink, blue, and red!

Lovely fashion BJD in kimono.
Kimono and kanzashi by me. Geta by Kilik the Fox, and high heels by Ursisarna. Both on instagram.
Silk roh: thin kimono silk usually worn in summer, but this time it's an under kimono.
Nanohana! My fav silk flower.
Heena is a BJD Crobi doll, 8-9" wig.
We got a fun request for a kanzashi that'd be suitable for a kabuki yakusha, and we went with elegant pinks and whites, and bold reds, a winter design.
Handmade hairpin, handmade kimono.
Rosemary is a cute tiny. The pink kimono is cotton. The habutae hair pins are called kanzashi/tsumami zaiku.
ピンク着物は綿で作りました。つまみ細工は羽二重の梅です！
I'm into making “Eco friendly shoppers”, that can be washed and not be promoting some large company with their logos. This one was a commission for a friend. Got a few more on the go as well. Have a lovely day friends.
...this is another one based off ukiyo-e prints, but not one in particular. I love, love, love the movement in the ukiyo-e prints, so I look at those when I want to convey a sense of movement without actually having a lot of miniature settings for this time period...
anyway, you know I love pre modern kimono. I prefer hikizuri (the trailing kind) to the fold-to-end-at-your-ankle kind because it's really graceful~~
Briar is wearing a red kimono over a white inner-kimono, worn loosely with a manaita obi. The manaita obi is specific to Oiran, who would wear such gorgeous obi with gold embroidery thread flowing over the very-detailed obi, which is longer, broader, and padded more than the usual obi. The decorative gold threads represent the Floating World, a pretty way to refer to the red light district.
I was playing with the shibori hair ties, and made the semi-traditional hair updo (simplified, and not all the way up~ ♥ but still cute)
I finished this kimono in August 2018, and it is made of wedding kimono silk. The original kimono was never finished, so it was a dream to make it into a kimono for dolls.
Wearing handdyed silk kanzashi, also made by me.
My two YouplaDolls, looking serene. Fairy-like hair is quite sweet isn't it?
These are two examples of cotton obi with vintage silk kimono.
This year, I decided to create a diorama to participate in the OOAK Contest of the Portuguese Doll Convention 2018 - Circus and this was the result. 🎪️ It was also the first time that I made a reroot in a Barbie but I liked it. ^_^ Thanks very much Joana Costa for your magic hands to dress the ticket and cotton candy seller girl. <3 Congratulations to all who participated and showed so much creativity and wonderful works. It was an unforgettable experience! :)
狐と化け狐の違いかと聞かれても
...ね。
Yurie and Sage are the cutest foxes. Er, I mean cutest kimono wearing people.
Outfits made by me.
Geta by Kilik the Fox on instagram.
Heena looks so delicate and pretty in green. It's deceptively simple on the top and sleeves, but from behind you can see this kimono is exquisitely painted. We were happy to buy it and put it together to be worn for years by various dolls...
Anyway, who do you think wore it best?
Leaves are red momiji~ lovely again.
1/4 size doll kimono and kanzashi set. The gold obi is a heart obi, designed to fit nicely with he under layer kanzashi.
Tsukihime wearing my handmade doll kimono.
I bought some undyed kimono fabric to dye myself! It's the first one I've made for my dolls. I love the pastel rainbow green.
This kimono has been sold.
The Hermit: 隠者
This is a fantasy style kimono based off of manga and short-novels illustration~ it's not quite kariginu and not quite everyday casual clothes in the heian period either-- 直衣? Kind of? Simplified for easy wear and also because I made this in a week, and it was a lot of work for a week's work. 🎃
