Zero Waste Upcycled Kimono Indigo Top

$120.00

This top is made from a vintage Kimono dyed in the Indigo method. Aizomé 藍染 or Japanese Indigo is derived from the Persicaria Tinctoria plant, and has long been revered for its beautiful hues and antibacterial properties. From plant to dye, it takes about a year to produce, which includes a fermentation process. Different shades of blue are produced by adjusting the fermentation time. Aizomé, which has been perfected since before the 16th century has now become synonymous with Japanese textile design.

This relaxed-fit top features a rounded neckline and fits up to US Ladies size 16
