FOUND IN AN ATTIC IN THE BRONX NEW YORK IN A BOX MARKED " 1964/ 1965 WORLDS FAIR JAPANESE PAVILION KIMONO."
TRADITIONAL JAPANESE KIMONO WITH COTTON HADAJUBAN UNDERSHIRT , WOOD SOLED SHOES WITH SPLIT SOCKS - A YELLOW BELT AND BOW , MADE OF PLASTIC AND 3 DIFFERENT COLORED CORDS.
THE KIMONO HAS PAPER INSERTED AROUND THE COLLAR, WIDE SLEEVES AND PINK STAINING ALONG THE ARM HOLES AND BOTTOM INNER HEM.
THE SOLES OF THE SHOES ARE VERY WORN SO I SUSPECT THIS MAY HAVE BEEN WORN BY ONE OF THE WAITRESSES OR SOMEONE WHO WORKED AT THE JAPANESE PAVILION , BUT ITS FAIRLY LARGE SO PROBABLY A WESTERNER.
IT COULD ALSO HAVE BEEN A SOUVENIR BUT THE MATERIAL IS NOT SILK AND FAIRLY UTILITARIAN.
THE COTTON UNDERSHIRT ORHADAJUBAN HAS SPLIT UNDERARMS LIKE THE KIMONO - WIDE SHORT SLEEVES WITH EYELET DECORATION.
BOTH THE KIMONO AND UNDERSHIRT NEED CLEANING, AS WELL AS THE PLASTIC BELT AND BOW.
NO LABEL IN ENGLISH BUT WOULD SAY ITS A US MEDIUM TO LARGE.IT IS VERY LONG.
THE CHEST MEASURES 24" UNDER ARM TO UNDERARM LAYING FLAT.NECK TO BOTTOM HEM IS 65".
