It is a new season with green buds.

 

We would like to introduce garabou workwear from COSMIC WONDER “North Village Light” collection. Garabou is a spinning machine mimics hand-spinning techniques, developed in the late 19th century by former monk and inventor Tatsumune Gaun. It can spin yarns like hand-spun yarns using fallen cotton. Organic cotton garabou yarn and silk are woven into tweed. Using the garabou fabric, we made folk cap and workwear. Work jackets are re-productions of 18th~19th century’s European jackets.

We are pleased to present mud-dyed garments from 2022 collection “Light dream” from Saturday, July 9.

 

Mud-dyeing is a traditional craft of Amami Oshima. Dyeing is done with dye made from boiled Sharinbai tree, which grows wild in Amami, and mud from the mud fields. The mud is iron-rich mud from the ancient stratum of 1.5 million years ago on Amami Oshima. After dyeing with sharinbai tree, the process is repeated: dyeing with mud in the mud field, rinsing in the river to remove the mud, dyeing with sharinbai tree, dyeing with mud in the mud field, rinsing in the river, and so on. Mud dyeing is a precious dyeing process that requires the blessings of nature, techniques cultivated over many years, and time.

We will introduce a variety of garments to enjoy the beginning of summer peacefully, including a haori robe made of beautiful silk cloth hand-woven in Bengal.
