SKU# N-02Peacock Velvet Burnout Kimono Stunning 1920s art deco-inspired beaded burnout velvet silk kimono jacket with fringe/ tassel trim. Peacock design and sheer silk fabric. Unlined. Hangs open, no closure. The velvet burnout process, or "Dévoré" as it is also referred, is achieved by applying an acid to a natural, protein fiber (silk) and natural non-protein fiber (rayon). The acid "burns out" the non-protein fiber leaving only the sheer woven silk and hence, creating elaborate and intricate designs. This fabrics is of the highest quality, and is very expensive to manufacture.
