Kimono Dress Gown & String Belt
Upcycled from a Genuine Vintage Japanese Kimono

This dress gown is carefully upcycled from a genuine vintage Japanese silk kimono, originally worn as a women’s black crested kimono — a formal garment with a strong cultural role in Japan.

Historically, women’s black crested kimonos were worn for highly formal occasions, most often funerals, in postwar Japan.
In some regions, the same kimono was also worn with hakama for graduation ceremonies, reflecting its significance as a ceremonial garment marking important life transitions.

The fabric is Habutae (羽二重), a silk known for its smooth texture.
I carefully handpicked this kimono piece, which is in very good condition for a vintage garment.

This piece is not intended to casualize mourning attire,
but to respectfully reinterpret a formal garment that has already fulfilled its original ceremonial role.
By transforming the silhouette while preserving the dignity of the fabric,
I propose a way of wearing a vintage kimono as a coat-like garment for modern life.

I do not aim to make light of mourning wear.
Rather, I seek to give new life to formal garments that are no longer worn,
allowing their beauty and presence to exist in the present.

The kimono was thoughtfully upcycled by myself and a specialized sewing team in Japan.
The sewing was executed by a First Grade Japanese Kimono Dressmaker (一級和裁士) based in Yamagata, Japan — a master-level artisan certified in traditional kimono tailoring.
This is a one-of-a-kind piece created.

“KAMON 家紋 ”About the mark on this HAORI
This mark is called KAMON and is the emblem representing the family.
In the old days, only a few people of high status were allowed to have KAMON, but in the Meiji era (1868-1912), ordinary people were allowed to have KAMON.
This haori family crest is called 「上り藤(あがりふじ) agari-fuji」

*Please understand that there may be stains and slight damage common in vintage fabrics as all of our clothes are made by either partial or full disassembly of the original kimono.

My doggo's go-to toy!
It's not the most durable of toys (she's on her third in five years) but I will buy her as many as she needs because she is OBSESSED with it!

Defective toy and inconsistent quality.
Size: X-Large, Color: Raccoon, Size: X-Large, Color: Raccoon
My initial review was 5 stars based on my experience with a previous order (blue raccoon) and the fact my puppy was immediately interested in it. However, I did not give it to her to play with until this past Friday (May 21, 2026) because she had the first one I bought. In a matter of 2 days the seam on the back and at the base of the head unraveled and all of the stuffing was scattered all over the room. I thought I’d found some good, high quality, toys for her but apparently this one was defective because the first one had had a lot of use and I’d still in decent shape. This is too much money to pay for a dog toy that only lasts a day or two so be advised they aren’t all good.

Bigger, louder, crinklier, softer, than expected!
Size: X-Large, Color: Rabbit
My dog was gifted a collection of used toys and he really likes a very long stuffed pig which, unfortunately, another dog that is a destructive chewer, totally destroyed. I decided to break down and buy him another long stuffed toy today and since he's always blissfully watching rabbits in the yard and neighborhood I chose the rabbit version. This thing is huge which is great for him- he's 62 lbs and 7 months old and only half grown. He loves it, it has multiple LOUD squeakers, lots of crinkly spots, and fun ears/legs to grab hold off. He's a big fan and it's made with K9 Tuff Guard which LASTS. Super soft and easy to wash. Update after 2 months- easy to wash and looks new after a washing. very durable so far, standing up to indoor and outdoor use. He is not a destructive chewer but whips them around, tramples on them, steps on them while running top speed and chomps on the annoying squeaker for hours. one squeaker has a hole and its tune is now slightly muted (thank god)

It’s been several months and all 3 still intact!
I have to be very selective because MOST toys labled recommended for “aggressive chewer” last about 20 minutes. Not kidding. These are the real deal. I’ve had these for several months now and all 3 are shockingly still completely intact and look like they did the day I got them.
