White Kimono Nightgown

This juban (under-kimono) is crafted from pure white silk, its surface subtly adorned with delicate, tone-on-tone patterns woven into the fabric. The understated motifs emerge as soft, whispering textures — visible only in shifting light — lending the kimono a quiet elegance and tactile depth.
Lightweight and flowing, the silk drapes effortlessly, recalling the gentle comfort of a nightgown while maintaining the refined lines of traditional Japanese tailoring. The pristine white hue enhances its serene, minimalist beauty, allowing the subtle woven designs to speak with restraint and sophistication.
Likely from the mid-Shōwa era (1950s–1970s), this piece reflects a period when juban combined practical layering with refined textile artistry.
A garment of understated grace — the White Kimono Nightgown balances simplicity, texture, and tradition in every fold.
