Sample Pictures:
kokoro_chan2001 has posted some sample pictures of CLAMP Mokona Okimono Kimono over here. While proper scans still haven’t showed up (if someone finds them, please let me know !!) we can kill our curiosity with them ^^
My favorite one remains being the X one ^__^
Thank you, oujiro_chan, for letting me know about this ^__^
Those were some very pretty kimonos. I wonder if the X dragon was painted on? I think I liked the red one no one modelled the best, though.
