seconded it rocks!
also I love the cuffs! how did u do them???

[jelliphishee]

I usually buy kimono fabric on ebay!
When you order a kimono, you usually order a bolt of fabric to make the kimono, then the tailors give you the left over fabric. And then people sell them on ebay for crafters

as for the sleeves, here's a quickie tut.

cool how you came up with the idea of making something modern and adding a vintage tough to it. you really pulled it off, it's very cute.
