Shahmaran Kimono
Pickup currently unavailable at CARIA atelier Newport Beach
The embroidery is what stopped me first. On this soft cream kimono, the serpent motif at each sleeve feels like something pulled from an old coastal memory—ornamental, symbolic, and quietly powerful. The fabric has that airy, crinkled texture I always love because it moves so beautifully without feeling precious. It drapes in a relaxed, fluid line with a deep V neckline, an easy self-tie waist, and a longer hem that sways as you walk. There’s something deeply Mediterranean about it to me—sun-washed, storied, and feminine in a way that feels both ancient and completely current.
