1930s Deer & Rooster Silk Under Kimono designer-oleg-cassini made of a very fineThis under kimono is mind boggling. It looks so sixties and yet it was produced in the late thirties, maybe early forties. I have the honor of helping a long term kimono collector de accesion her collection and some of the piece I have and will be getting are exceptional and quite rare like this one! This piece was made for the Japanese market, not for the tourist trade and is actually an under kimono. These are unusual to find in the Western market
