A red-brown, silk gauze robe hangs flat, the arms almost as wide as the robe’s body. The same design features on each side of the robe’s opening, extending from the robe’s body to the sleeve’s inner section. The design features two fans among six hanging, leafy vines. The vines alternate between gold and white. The fans are gold or purple, and muted purple, pink, and green foliage at the top transitions to the hanging vines.
