What is a BAI beginner-RANGE fabrics?

• These fabrics can let you experience the magical experience of choosing the kimono you want us to upcycle for you.

Measurement

• You are getting pieces that are based on our sizing guide. If you already know our sizing guide (perhaps after visiting us from our pop ups), you can you just key in the size that you wear from Etsuka. 
• If you are not familiar with Etsuka sizes, you can refer to this size chart: 

Notes: 

• All products are made from vintage kimonos. We chose kimonos that are beautiful and wearable. However, some kimonos might have small storage stains. We deemed these, if there is any, is either negligible or adds to the beauty of the kimono.
• We do not guarantee pattern placements. We promise to make use of most of the pattern as much as we can. However, there are situations that parts of the fabric is too fragile to sew. Thus, Etsuka cannot guarantee pattern placements to your custom fabrics
• In case the fabric is not viable for sewing, we will reach out to you if you want to change to another premium fabric. Of course, if you cannot choose a new one, we'd be more than happy to refund you.
