Luscious purple velvet kimono coat with botan (peony) - probably woven-in urushi (metallic/lacquered threads)
Amazing fuyu kodachi (barren tree in winter) modern kimono with beautiful crepuscular colors. OP paired it with a hakama and a pretty black haori with Western building woven in urushi (lacquered threads)
Perfect seasonal themed outfit, pairing suzume (sparrow) and sasa (bamboo). Kansuzume (lit. cold sparrow, sometimes drawn as little fluff balls/fukura suzume), is a beloved Winter motif which is found in classical litterature and art alike.
The subdued kimono as lovely urushi (lacquered thread) pattern, and I just love the dye work on the bamboo leaves!
