Era

Mid-Showa Era (circa 1950s–1960s)

Material

Wool

Crafted during the mid-Showa era, this rare wool mantle carries a strong historical presence rooted in a transformative period of Japanese fashion.

As Western clothing rapidly gained influence in Japan, garments like this emerged at the intersection of Japanese tradition and Western tailoring. This outerwear piece is highly regarded as Japanese vintage, preserving the atmosphere and cultural transition of its time.

The cape-like silhouette flows naturally from the shoulders, changing its expression with movement. Simply draping it over the body creates a refined and balanced shape, offering both elegance and ease.

While deeply classical in spirit, the sculptural volume resonates effortlessly with modern fashion, making it suitable for contemporary styling as well as archival appreciation.

The wool has developed a rich texture over decades, possessing depth and character that can only be achieved through time. This patina gives the garment a presence far beyond that of newly produced items.

Examples like this are rarely found on the market, and surviving mantles from the same era are extremely limited in number.

Lightly layered over simple outfits, this piece sharpens the entire look and blends naturally with both Japanese and Western clothing. Its quiet yet confident presence allows it to stand out subtly in everyday settings.

Suitable for daily wear as well as special occasions, this is a truly one-of-a-kind archive piece that transcends trends and generations.

Recommended for those who appreciate vintage garments and the stories they carry.

Please note: The item will be shipped compressed, which may result in wrinkles. Other items shown on the model or used for styling and photography are not included.
