Japan’s once colourful kimonos are long asleep. Just like old vinyl.
We dig them out, lay them down, and drop the needle. W@nderFabric is a Japanese fashion brand established 2016 creating caps using kimonos, Japanese traditional clothing. Nowadays, opportunities to wear kimonos have decreased in Japan.
Thus, many kimonos that once colourfully painted the streets of Japan are sleeping in chests. The mission of W@nderFabric is to awaken these kimonos and upcycle them to integrate them with today’s modern fashion.
There is a reality that traditional Japanese kimono sleeps in the chest and is eventually thrown away. Kimono is a beauty that once colored Japan and coexistence with nature. Includes an identity that makes you feel handicraft.
W＠nderFabric manually dismantles such kimonos. 1 point 1 point Handmade CAP. As sustainable and up-cycle fashion. A brand from Japan that is analog yet future-proof. Image Credit: WonderFabric_japan
