1/6 Tonbi Coat: Men’s overcoat for kimono お人形のトンビコート

tonbi2 (2)お人形のとんびコートを作りました。

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.

 

tonbi2 (1)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.

tonbi3ケープは後ろでは身頃と一体になっています。

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.
