京都の職人技、その手仕事
一着の着物に、何人もの手仕事がある
Having grown up surrounded by Japanese tradition, I’ve come to appreciate its beauty even more deeply since making my life outside of Japan. Every kimono carries the work of countless hands — weavers, dyers, embroiderers, craftsmen — refined over generations of dedication and time. Yet today, even in Japan, fewer people wear kimono. Here in New York, awareness of this heritage is rarer still.
Kimono Colors was founded to change that. We help people experience the elegance of kimono firsthand — creating joyful memories through photography — while documenting the craftsmanship behind it, so the world can see the time, skill, and purity that goes into every thread. This is more than preservation. It’s a way of carrying Japanese tradition into the future, one story at a time.
