KYOTO KAKISHIBU COLLECTION

KYOTO KAKISHIBU COLLECTION 



Discover the super natural textile dye made of persimmon fruit called 'kakishibu dye', which is a traditional craft originated and which is still practiced in Kyoto, Japan.

The capsule collection RESILIENCE is informed by the main material used, such as kakishibu dyed cotton. A living tradition which we encountered at a vintage market in Kyoto. (Read our blog-post to find out more) SHOHEI converts kakishibu dyed materials into authentic modern purist designs.

The Kyoto-made natural dye uses fermented tannin juice from unripe persimmon fruit. Each piece is unique with its brush-stroke hand-applied textile dye.

The material’s aesthetic lead to the explore abstract paintings and scribblings which then got applied in form of top-stitching and pattern making.

Emerge yourself in clothes inspired by abstract minimalist art forms.
