Indigo Aster Kushukushu Dress

A garment that gracefully envelops you with a gentle crinkled texture, allowing you to connect more deeply with the gradual transformation of indigo over time.

Crafted from Indian Kadhi fabric, known for its ability to find beauty even in the presence of irregularities and cotton fragments, this fabric is a cherished creation in the homes of Indian villages. Despite its sheer delicacy and transparency, it emanates a warm and rustic charm that is truly emblematic of handmade craftsmanship.

Named after the Shion flower, a beloved symbol deeply rooted in Japanese culture and literature for centuries, this floral motif has been a comforting presence in the hearts of the Japanese people, even making appearances in ancient tales like the "Konjaku Monogatari." Meticulously printed by skilled artisans using the hand-dyeing technique, these flowers exhibit a delicate intricacy, reminiscent of patterns found on yukata fabric, and convey the heartfelt intentions of the makers.

The dress, with its softly crinkled texture, is more about a gentle draping experience than mere attire. It effortlessly embodies the essence of 45R, Japanese traditions, and craftsmanship in an understated and natural manner.
