Tunic with twisted sleeves
This tunic is designed based on the traditional top of this region called "sakkuri". It is soft and can be worn by any body type. The large armholes, called "mojiri sleeves", allow for good ventilation.
Light and refreshing linen material
The soft design is not restrictive and the fabric is 100% linen. It is a versatile linen fabric that is firm but also soft.
Nuanced colors of plants and flowers
The pale colors of the plant dyes are beautiful and represent the richness of Japanese nature. The dye is made by boiling plants harvested in Itoshiro. The colors are very gentle and easy to match with anything.

■ Production Story
This was based on the clothes I borrowed from Risako, who is now in her 90s. The distinctive feature is the sleeves, which are made by folding and sewing together rectangles called "mojiri sleeves."
I still remember the shock I felt when I first saw this sleeve in person. I realized that the triangular sleeve was made from just one piece of fabric, and that it had the same structure as the sleeves of Ainu clothing.
Itoshiro is a settlement that has existed since the Jomon period, so there may be some connection. I created this design while being drawn to the romance of its long history.
