Coveted Wafuku 8

This is part of my Coveted Wafuku Series, dedicated to the beautiful kimono that I want but shall never have.

This is a late Taisho/early Showa Period Houmongi, feauting a paulownia tree in bloom. It is also my dream kimono. I love the kiri (paulownia) motif, but I never see it shown realistically as it is here. It also has yuzen, embroidery, and couching, all on purple silk (a.k.a my favorite color). It's so perfect... if only it were mine...
