What is the cute and retro Edo Komon? If you are a beginner, we recommend a pochette.

If you are interested in Japanese-style goods and kimonos, have you heard of "Edo Komon"?

For those who have heard of it but don't know much about it, we will explain the appeal of Edo Komon.

We will also be introducing pochette bags using Edo Komon patterns, so be sure to take a look.

 

What kind of pattern is Edo Komon?

"Komon" refers to kimonos with repeated dyed patterns. The same pattern is scattered throughout the roll of fabric or kimono.

Edo Komon refers to fabrics with even finer patterns that look like solid colors. They are dyed using the stencil dyeing method that has been passed down since the Edo period, but the patterns are small so they look like a single color.

It is said that delicate patterns are difficult to create and require skillful techniques. Therefore, Edo Komon has a more formal feel than casual Komon, which is one of its charms.

Edo Komon is an indication of high status, but depending on the color and pattern it can also look elegant or cute.

In recent years, it is not uncommon for it to be used not only for kimonos, but also for fashion accessories such as scarves, masks, and pouches.

 

Edo Komon is also cute when used as a bag.

Edo Komon requires a high level of skill, so if you find it difficult to try it on a kimono, why not try it on a bag?

At K-iwami , we use intricate "Ise Katagami" paper to create beautiful Edo Komon bags that are hand-dyed by traditional craftsmen.

Being able to enjoy dyeing by a craftsman who has received the Yellow Ribbon Medal in the comfort of your own bag is a product unique to K-iwami .

There aren't many opportunities to wear a kimono, but anyone can afford a bag that can be used on an everyday basis.

This bag is packed with advanced technology, but it is also very adorable. It has a round, gentle shape and is designed to fit in with modern fashion.

The cute, high-quality bags are all designed to be easy to use on a daily basis. Be sure to check them out for yourself and their designs.

 

Retro pochette shoulder bags are recommended

If you're looking for a retro bag, why not try a shoulder pouch that can be used in any situation?

Even though it is a mini shoulder bag, it is easy to store things, and if you remove the belt, it can also be used as a pouch or clutch bag.

A bag that retains the charm of Edo Komon while being adapted for modern use is easy to use.

It's rare to have the opportunity to experience high-quality dyeing techniques up close.
