The Azure Breeze — Japanese Ro Summer Kimono, Indigo Kasuri Floral - Wall Hangings
Price $351
The Japanese summer, made wearable. Anywhere. At a glance: A ro summer kimono in indigo with kasuri lattice and summer wildflowers, 159 cm long, light enough to wear through July. One exists; it ships from Amsterdam. A ro-weave summer kimono in a washable technical fibre, presented by the Renaras atelier, Amsterdam; ships worldwide. The Azure Breeze is a Japanese Ro summer kimono — a Komon (小紋, all-over pattern) garment in the Ro (絽) technique, the classic Japanese summer weave in which horizontal bands of transparent gauze are integrated into the fabric at regular intervals, allowing air to circulate against the skin and creating the cool lightness that makes Ro the classic warm-weather kimono cloth. Against a deep indigo-blue ground in a geometric Kasuri-inspired lattice, graceful sprigs of summer wildflowers — clematis, bellflower, blush and white — drift across the hem and shoulder with the effortless informality of a Japanese garden in July. Renaras designs and reimagines existing Japanese ceremonial silk into contemporary pieces for daily life — this is our mottainai: the bringing of new imagination into a living tradition. Woven once for moments of significance, brought into the home with the same care that went into its making. Where the ceremonial pieces in the collection are heirloom objects handled with care, the Azure Breeze is designed to be worn — freely, frequently, and without anxiety. It is crafted from a high-quality technical fibre that replicates the visual lightness and drape of Ro silk while offering what ceremonial silk cannot: it can be gently laundered at home, folded into a suitcase and emerge ready to wear, and worn through a Mediterranean summer evening without concern for humidity or spillage. For garden parties, gallery openings, coastal dinners, the kind of warm-weather occasions where nothing from the Western wardrobe feels quite right. The most accessible entry point into the collection — and the most frequently worn piece in it. Each garment arrives with a passport from the atelier — a handmade record of its provenance, its construction, and its presentation, signed and dated in Amsterdam.
