It is considered the most luxurious of woven kimono fabrics, characterized by its luster and high-quality crispness. Twisted yarn is used for both the warp and weft, and the fine "shibo" (crepe) on the surface of the fabric gives it the name chirimmen (crepe). Omeshi is a woven kimono like tsumugi and cotton, but it has the characteristic of being more resilient and less prone to wrinkles than other chirimmen, making it less likely to lose its shape and easier to manage at the hem, making it suitable for stylish wear. Also, it is a pre-dyed kimono where the yarn is dyed before being woven into fabric, and the colors and patterns are created with the dyed yarn. Patterned items have a subtle depth of shadow due to the unevenness of the woven fabric. "Conveying the heart of nature to the present... spinning the unchanging and leaving a name," it will undoubtedly satisfy the stylish you. Please confirm it with your own hands for seasonal attire.
