Never had one, but haven't really seen it in the shops either:-(. This is perfect for a matine, and so happy for you Suz you could reintegrate this fab piece in your current wardrobe, would have been a great post on Karie's orphanes thread:-).<br />I&nbsp; can also&nbsp;see those "creases" what Krish mentioned, but to be honest I thought the skirt itself was a weavy knit&nbsp;from the knee down....BTW if there are not there IRL it means it's only the flash or some weird shades, so doesn't even worth speaking about, YLF with or withouth them:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre/page/2#post-942177 Sun, 26 May 2013 16:55:18 +0000 CocoLion 942177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How did I miss this, fellow kimono topper wearer? &nbsp;You look fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre#post-942167 Sun, 26 May 2013 16:42:05 +0000 Suz 942167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, the skirt wasn't available in petite when I ordered it (or not in this colour).

It was an easy look to wear.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre#post-942137 Sun, 26 May 2013 16:13:13 +0000 JulieJohn 942137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look thrilled, and that smile is your best accessory.

I hadn't even noticed them! &nbsp;I believe you mentioned them in another post and I didn't know what you were talking about, but now that you mention it again, I can see them in this picture. </p> <p>The truth is, I have no idea why this happens! I'm not wearing nylons.&nbsp;I suspect it is simply because it is a stretchy and soft knit fabric. Maybe it wrinkles up when I am sitting or something, since it's a midi. And maybe it is more noticeable on the cobalt skirt than in the navy one. (i have two identical skirts).&nbsp;But to tell the truth, I'm not sure it <b>IS</b> noticeable IRL. My (fussy) husband has not remarked on it and he usually picks at stuff like that if it is evident. Still, I'm a bit worried about it now, so I'm going to see if I can see my reflection while I'm out. Hmmm. Very peculiar!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre#post-939180 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:56:13 +0000 catgirl 939180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO INSPIRED. &nbsp;Now I want one. &nbsp;</p> <p>*changes style rubric to accommodate kimono* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre#post-939177 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:53:24 +0000 Thistle 939177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, perfect styling of the kimono!&nbsp; What a terrific way to use the information from Angie's post.</p> <p>YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre#post-939171 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:49:03 +0000 krishnidoux 939171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE LOVE LOVE this! So chic, so feminine!&nbsp;Skilful&nbsp;colour-blocking&nbsp;too. That skirt is just so perfect on you, right&nbsp;length, right shape... one small inconvenience: why does it wrinkle like this at the knee I wonder? Is it on purpose? Is it the fabric against nylons (in which case you are not alone, I have this problem too)? I had to say something, don't hate me. This outfit is otherwise so perfect in every way.&nbsp;</p> <p>Yay for the Kimono getting out!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre#post-939006 Wed, 22 May 2013 17:20:01 +0000 nancylee 939006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! &nbsp;It's so great that you had this in your closet already...and that you wasted no time putting it into action.</p> <p>p.s. &nbsp;This look is so great for you that&nbsp;I think you need another kimono....in a print! &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-goes-to-the-theatre#post-938917 Wed, 22 May 2013 15:09:14 +0000 Suz 938917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks!! This is actually a daytime look! I am going to lunch and the matinee.
