I’ve been making clothes out from partly damaged japanese traditional Kimono for 2 years. Fascinated to the beautiful patterns of thoes fabrics.

Now, It’s not like I’m tired of kimono fabric but I started to feel like I’d like to use “normal” fabrics, too. So from now on, I’m going to use leftover kimonos for a part of the clothes.

Made out from partly damaged japanese traditional Kimono, hand-sewn.

・

I used to not wear black tops, because black colour is too strong. Since I changed my hair to bright colour, I noticed black tops suits to my hair colour, started to like black tops.

・

I didn’t put facing because this is sheer fabric, instead I covered the edge with the same fabric.

Made out from japanese traditional Kimono given by a friend, hand-sewn.

This Kimono was owned by my friend’s grandmother and it’s a custom-made (usually rapped like this ↓)

・

・

It’s too nice to cut out and upcycle, but my friend said no one is going to wear this “weird” pattern kimono— (well, I thought it’s nice)

Made out from partly damaged japanese traditional Kimono, hand-sewn.

It looked a little too loose,

so I arranged the shoulder part.

(Fold→stitched)

This is one of the nice things about handmade clothes.

You can fix it to make it fit for you.

Made out from partly damaged japanese haori(=jacket for kimono), hand-sewn.

羽織-haori is a jacket for kimono, shorter than kimono.

(I usually fold kimono when I take picture,but this time I didn’t fold it)

Haori↓

As you can see from the picture,

haori has same wide sleeves as kimono.
