MISSION
Kimono Tango aims and practices the integration of kimono culture,
born from a long history and master craftsmanship, into modern life and incorporates it into everyday life
without compromising the original design and texture.
Kimono Tango は、長い歴史と匠の技から生まれた着物文化を現代生活に融合させ、
本来のデザインや風合いを損なわずに日常に取り入れることを目指し、実践しています。
We don't regard kimonos as an entity detached from everyday life,
but as a 'chest resource', integrating its design into modern life while respecting its historical beauty.
着物を日常から切り離された存在と捉えず、「箪笥資源」と位置づけ、その歴史的な美を尊重しつつ、現代生活にデザインを組み込んでいます。
Our mission is to revive kimono culture as a new 'usable art' and to pass it on to new generations.
私たちの使命は、着物文化を新たな「使えるアート」として蘇らせ、新しい世代に伝えることです。
DESIGNER
Studied French literature
lived in London, and
inherited a love for kimonos from my mother.
Now, blending that with my respect
for Japanese culture from my time in Europe.
