とんびコートは、着物の上に着るためのコートです。
I made tonbi coat for 1/6 size doll.
Tonbi coat is similar to the Inverness coat
putting on over kimono.
着物の袖が邪魔にならないように、ケープの下は袖がない作りになっています。
As you can see, it doesn’t have sleeves under the cape
it is because there are full kimono sleeves.
The back of the cape is a part of back body: it is one piece.
Come to think of it, I realized this tonbi coat is
much similar to the Inverness cape: the cape split in two and a small cape on
each side was sewn into the side seams
not taken across the back(*), but not exactly same.
