As I was going to Japan I needed to make Kimono Barbie. I chose the one with long hair from my 2 recent Barbie purchases from Akko. The blond one wasn’t really relevant. I studied kimono patterns and used the fabric that Christian and Maria had bought for me in Japan. I made huge winged sleeves and used dusty pink felt to attach them to the body. I made her an underskirt and used the gold as a bow. I made her earrings and necklace to complete the look.
