Japanese Kimono-Kasuri

About the Item

In the 1980s, as Japan's economy flourished and daily life became more affluent, interest in traditional culture and folk crafts began to grow. Within this trend, Kasuri kimono—once common everyday wear or work clothes for ordinary people—started to be reevaluated. Kasuri is a traditional Japanese weaving technique in which threads are dyed in advance to create patterns when woven. This results in distinctive, blurred designs. Various regional styles developed, including Kurume Kasuri, Iyo Kasuri, Bingo Kasuri, and Oshima Tsumugi, each with its own characteristics. During the 1980s, these kasuri textiles were increasingly appreciated for their nostalgic charm and traditional beauty, and began appearing in antique markets and secondhand kimono shops. In the fields of art and fashion as well, kasuri gained attention for its rustic texture and geometric patterns. Some began to incorporate it into modern clothing and accessories, giving rise to a unique and personal fashion style. This movement later contributed to the rise of "Wa-modern" aesthetics and the antique kimono boom. Dimensions: High total 91cm Width total 86cm Sleeve width 45cm Sleeve hight 90cm
