“Do not let your mind be swayed by the praise and criticism. Do not be disturbed by what you gain or don’t gain. Be at peace and tranquil, without any sorrow, without any resentment. This is the highest human happiness.”

@todayintokyo!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH for this breathtaking crow themed antique kimono outfit!!!!!

The houmongi, with bokashi (gradation) in mysterious blue to grey tones, has malicious crows flying around, some embroidered others woven in urushi (lacquered threads). I like how the upper back one looks like it’s gonna catch the mon/crest in its beak.

The obi is super unusual as all black items are usually mourning gear in kimono fashion, which means meek and subdued with only rinzu (woven pattern like this or this for ex).

Here, what I believe is shusu (satin silk) is fully embroidered in black with autumn plants (kikyo/chinese bellflowers + susuki/pampa grass) and a crow perched upon a tree. Black based shusu obi like this one were once pretty trendy, I’d love to see such a fashion make a come back :D
