Bold color. Dramatic depth.
This kimono is hand-marbled in a striking palette of brilliant green, blue, and violet with black — colors that pulse with intensity and shift in the light. Cut from 100% sheer silk chiffon, it drapes with effortless elegance and makes an immediate impression whether layered over jeans or evening wear.
Fit & Drape
- One size fits most — relaxed kimono cut fits bust and hip up to 45". Length: 29".
- Flattering from petite to plus — the open, flowing silhouette works on every body type.
Style It
The deep, saturated palette pairs beautifully with black, white, or any of its own jewel tones. Layer over a coordinating silk top for a complete look, or let it anchor a simple outfit with instant drama. A standout choice for evenings out, weddings, resort, and travel.
Care
Handwash in baby shampoo and hang to dry. Lightweight and packable — a natural travel companion.
Why It's Special
Hand-marbled and sewn by Susan Marling in her US studio. Only one exists — once it's gone, this exact pattern can never be recreated.

Fabric
100% Silk Chiffon. This piece of fabric is hand marbled. It started as a piece of white silk. I floated paints on the surface of a liquid in a large tray. I raked and combed those paints into patterns and then laid the silk on top of the floating paint to make a unique piece of fabric. I then cut and sewed the garment.
Size Chart
One Size items created from Silk Chiffon Fabric are designed to fit small to plus sizes. The sheerness of the fabric creates drapier look for smaller bodies (without looking too large). Larger bodies will also see a pretty drape of the fabric.

Jacket/Wraps will gracefully fit up to 62" wide through the bust and hips (unless noted differently) and the length is around 25" from shoulder to hem.
