kimonofūkei is an ongoing work which highlights the cultural craftsmanship behind vintage Oshima Tsumugi and Shiro Oshima kimonos. Rather than allowing these textiles to disappear quietly, kimonofūkei aims to re-contextualize these garments in a contemporary aesthetic through thoughtful reinterpretation in design.
Because each vintage piece is delicate, handmade and thoughtfully reworked, spot cleaning is recommended. Please avoid machine washing or soaking, as this may damage the fabric and detailing.
Each custom dress begins with gathering the wearer’s individual measurements, allowing the silhouette to be shaped with accuracy and intention. Every piece is made with careful attention to detail, with a timeline of roughly 4–6 weeks depending on the design and materials. As reclaimed kimono textiles are used, the pattern placement and motifs will vary from the photos, giving each dress its own unique character while staying true to the original fabric.
