Sleek summer-spook outfit, pairing a kasuri (an ikat technique) kimono, with a cute obi with tiny dokuro (skull).
With the coming of Obon celebrations, summer months are seen as the spooky seasons in Japan, hence why motifs like nozarashi (weather-beaten bones) are not unusual on summer fashion items.
I like the matching marukuge (obijime made from fabric tubes filled with cotton). In the past, those were mostly used for formal attires yet recently, you see them more and more paired with informal kimono.
