This is a beautiful soft susohiki with thick padding along the hemline.
Susohiki lieterally means 'trail the skirt' and this particular kimono is much longer than other kimono. This is worn to do the elegant dance with a folding fan in the Japanese style drawing room.
Textile is type of chirimen silk (crepe silk), and it has textured touch.
Appealing Japanese garden scenery is dyed gracefully.
It has prominent stains on its collar as shown on photo A. Its lining is prominently discolored as shown on photo D, but flaws described on outside do not seem prominent.
It may not be worn as a garment, but as for costume purpose, it still could be worn.
Please see photos for details.
