Description

The Kimono ENDO white/gold is the most timeless of all our kimonos — the one you keep for a lifetime. Its polka dot pattern, reimagined in an unexpected colourway, creates a luminous dialogue between two materials: gold dots on a white ground on one side, white dots on a gold ground on the reverse. Two silhouettes in a single piece.

Cut from a high-density brocart-style jacquard, woven in France by weavers certified Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant, Bio and Oeko-Tex 100 certified, the ENDO is worn crossed and held by side ties. Two OBI belt options — white on the front side or gold on the reverse — to compose your silhouette for any occasion. 3/4 sleeves with a piped cuff.

Finished with French seams, entirely hand-sewn in our Grenoble atelier. Ideal for a wedding, cocktail, ceremony — or simply to be the most elegant person in the room.

Pairs with: white TENKO skirt — black TENKO skirt — KURO off-white hakama — SHIRO sand hakama — MIDORI lime green hakama — DENIMI sky blue hakama.
