A crossing of black and purplish-blue hues, with a subtle checkered pattern... A Nishijin Omeshi, crafted by the renowned Kyoto workshop, Haryusho, embodying sophistication and coolness. Tall size, ready-to-wear, tailored by our company. The checkered pattern applied to the diagonal lattice-like mon-sha (figured silk gauze) changes its expression depending on the viewing angle and the way the light hits it. The lightness unique to mon-sha, combined with the deep colors, gives a sense of mature elegance. Nishijin Omeshi is woven using strongly twisted yarn called Omeshi-nui, making it less prone to static electricity and comfortable to wear, gently conforming to the body. It has a moist texture and moderate firmness, making it resistant to wrinkling and allowing for beautiful hem movement. Furthermore, mon-sha has a more delicate transparency than ro (crepe), adding even more coolness to summer attire. Of course, it's perfect for the peak of summer in July and August, but when combined with a matching juban (undergarment), it can also be worn in the single-layered kimono season of June and September. The creative workshop "Haryusho" is known for its kimono making that inherits the traditions of Nishijin-ori (Nishijin weaving) while always incorporating modern sensibilities. Their works, which feel both classical and somehow new, are highly supported by those who love kimonos. The tailoring is done by hand, which gently conforms to the body. Furthermore, it comes with a koshiki-ate (seat lining) to prevent transparency and wrinkling, so you can wear it with peace of mind. This piece is perfect for "slightly special occasions" in everyday life, such as attending the theater, lessons, or dinner parties. Recommended for those who want to enjoy wearing a kimono without being too formal, while still valuing a sense of formality. This is a brand new, unused item, worn only for photography, with basting threads still attached. The quiet beauty woven by black and purplish-blue... Embrace coolness and elegance. A masterpiece that will give you confidence in your summer attire.
