You don’t need a full kimono outfit to enjoy it: a T-shirt and your usual trousers are a natural starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts distinctive feature is the shorter length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasuring 65 cm (25.6 in) from the base of the back collar to the hem, it balances a roomy body and generous sleeves with a neat, shorter cut. The proportions give it a charming character while making it easy to wear with contemporary clothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe understated outer fabric carries a fine pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuiet from a distance, the pattern reveals itself as you look closer.

Mostly hidden while worn, it is a detail to enjoy for yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps you like the shorter length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps the fine pattern catches your eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps you want to spend a little longer looking at the landscapes inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA particular detail you love can be the starting point for making an old garment part of your life today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaori are attracting interest among Japanese vintage enthusiasts in Europe and North America. Their appeal is not limited to admiring historical clothing: these designs can still be worn and enjoyed with the clothes already in your wardrobe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeeping existing clothing in use and passing it on to its next wearer gives it a continuing place in everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing a piece you love and wearing it over time is a personal way to embrace slow fashion and a more sustainable wardrobe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGarment Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOuter fabric: Believed to be a mixed-fiber weave, but the exact fiber composition is unknown.
