The design is very beautiful with delicate lines, just like Kutani Yaki porcelain. It is a unique design and I look forward to wearing it during the upcoming yukata season."

The yukata is very light and comfortable to wear! I love the colors and the patterns. I am considering buying another one to wash up.

I was surprised to find it in a beautiful box. I have a variety of yukata, but I don't think I can find this kind of pattern in stores. I am glad that the price is affordable.

Features of KUTANI x KIMONO, where individuality shines through


1. Originality and originality of each artist's design

KUTANI x KIMONO was created with this idea in mind: "Tradition can not only be preserved, but also evolved and connected to the future.

KUTANI×KIMONO, born from this idea, is truly "wearable art" that incorporates one-of-a-kind patterns drawn by Kutani Yaki artists into the fabric of yukata and zimbei.

The fusion of traditional crafts and fashion is a new attempt to bring the appeal of tradition to people who have had little contact with traditional industries.
