This top is made from a vintage Iromuji Kimono. Iromuji 色無地 Kimono are a versatile type of Kimono that can be worn casually or for semi-formal occasions such as tea ceremonies. Iromuji Kimono are always solid color, and often feature designs woven into the silk.
Traditionally, Kimonos are constructed from narrow bolts of silk that are cut into eight rectangular pieces, then folded and overlapped to fit the body. At any time, the pieces can be taken apart and sewn back together to accommodate size changes. This method of construction does not produce any waste. As a nod to this zero-waste philosophy, this top is made using the sleeves and features a v-neck in front and back.
