Kyoto Furoshiki: Modern Girl - Double Width - Polka Dot

【Kyoto Furoshiki: Modern Girl - Polka Dot】 The pattern features classic polka dots. At the time, polka dots, as an element introduced from the West, were novel and charming to Japanese women, leading to their widespread adoption and popularity in Meisen kimonos. Design Highlight: While polka dots are a Pop-style pattern, this design uses a more subdued color palette, ensuring it doesn't appear too striking in everyday wear and integrates seamlessly with minimalist styles. 【Modern Girl Series - Taisho Modern Design Style】 This series revives the "Modern Girl" style, embodying the most vibrant and innovative spirit of the Taisho era (Taisho Roman): Historical Context: Following the Great Kanto Earthquake in the 12th year of Taisho, a new generation of young people, known as "Modern Boys" (モボ) and "Modern Girls" (モガ), emerged in Tokyo. Fashion Icons: Modern Girls were particularly fond of Meisen silk kimonos, which incorporated overseas textile designs. They walked the streets in brightly colored, Pop-style Meisen kimonos, representing the avant-garde fashion of the time. Craftsmanship Reimagined: Through printing techniques, this Furoshiki series skillfully recreates the rich world of Meisen kimono colors and the delicate textures of Kasuri weaving. This design, a fusion of Japanese and Western aesthetics, is perfectly suited for pairing with dresses, kimonos, or yukatas. 【Practicality Meets Aesthetics: The 70cm Craftsmanship of Japan】 Ideal for gift wrapping or as a stylish bag, this piece is a sophisticated accessory that combines both utility and beauty. 【Material and Environmental Commitment: MUSUBI Organic Cotton】 This Furoshiki is crafted from MUSUBI organic cotton, grown in fields that have practiced organic farming for 2-3 years, meet organic agricultural production standards, and are certified by accredited organizations.
