Watch our video of the event:
It was very fun to see brand new works created by local artists. These are some of the most beautiful kimonos and obis being produced today. The pieces were fully painted, but not fully stitched together. The kimonos on display weren't tailored and the obis were still on the roll. There were full fabric bolts on display as well, making you wonder what they'd look like as finished kimonos.
Many of these artists also sell pieces as wall art, personal accessories, and other home decor. Please check out our blog or the link above to visit and follow each artist.
