Sharing our journey of bringing Japanese creativity to the world.
We are delighted to announce that KIMONO⁺on has been featured on Shokunin Frontier, a video podcast by Craft Town that introduces Japanese handmade creators and their journeys into international markets.
In this interview, our founder, Yoiko, shares the story behind KIMONO⁺on, the inspiration for transforming vintage kimono fabrics into contemporary fashion, and our ongoing journey to introduce Japanese creativity to the world.
For us, kimono is more than a traditional garment or textile. It carries stories, craftsmanship, and a unique beauty that deserves to be reimagined for modern life.
Through KIMONO⁺on, we explore new ways to connect Japanese cultural heritage with contemporary fashion, creating pieces that bring a distinctive touch of Japanese aesthetics into everyday style.
The conversation also explores the challenges, discoveries, and experiences of building a brand and pursuing opportunities in overseas markets.
We are grateful to Craft Town for giving us this opportunity to share our story and connect with a wider community of creators and culture enthusiasts.
