A guide for this piece: about $28, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.

A Kenzo kimono jacket in deep indigo denim, wrapped at the front with a tie and embroidered across the back with the words Rue Vivienne in glittering script. Size M, in very good condition.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the house has long drawn its energy from the meeting of Tokyo sensibility and Parisian ease. A kimono jacket in denim is that meeting made literal: a Japanese silhouette, an American cloth and a Parisian address stitched on the back.
The cloth is a dark, crisp indigo denim with pale contrast stitching along every seam. The front is cut in the straight wrapped line of a kimono jacket, with a shawl collar, large patch pockets at the hips and a tie closure, and a small embroidered KP monogram in the same glittering thread sits on the chest. Across the back, Rue Vivienne is written in looping script, a nod to the street in Paris where the house began. A red Kenzo Paris label marks the inside neckline, and a tan leather-style Kenzo Paris patch is stitched at the hem.
Size M on the maker’s tag. The page records no flat measurements, so please ask us if you need exact dimensions before buying.
