Hello! This is Rurimon, a kimono-to-Western clothing remake studio based in Aobadai, Yokohama. A customer who had previously requested a bag remake from a black obi asked us to also create a juzu (prayer bead) pouch from the remaining fabric. It's something like a slightly oversized pouch. Since there wasn't quite enough patterned fabric left, we incorporated plain black fabric to complete the design. Using the obi that had belonged to their late mother, the entire family now has matching bags,...

Hello. We are Rurimon, a kimono-to-clothing remake atelier based in Aobadai, Yokohama. We had the pleasure of receiving a rare piece — a men's long juban (under-kimono) that had belonged to the client's father. We remade it into a women's garment: a long vest. The bold tiger pattern is simply breathtaking — just looking at it gets you excited! To have this remade into everyday clothing and actually wear it out — how stylish and stunning! At the center front, we added one large...

Hello. We are Rurimon, a kimono remake atelier based in Aoba-dai, Yokohama. We received a vibrant orange patterned kimono fabric and remade it into a pair of pants. The fabric was thick and very sturdy, making it ideal for pants. They are unlined, with a single-layer construction. Since they can be hand-washed, they are the perfect piece for the upcoming hot season. The vivid pattern looks stunning in summer.

こんにちは。横浜・青葉台 着物リメイクの瑠璃門/るりもんです。 オレンジの鮮やかな柄の着物地をお預かりして、パンツをリメイクしました。肉厚のとてもしっかりした生地でしたので、パンツにも最適でした。裏地は付けずに、一重仕立て。手洗いしていただけるので、これから暑くなる季節にぴったりの一枚です。 鮮やかな柄が夏に映えます

Hello. We are Rurimon, a kimono remake atelier based in Aobadai, Yokohama. We previously made a pair of pants using the same fabric. This jacket was made from the remaining cloth, using as much length as the leftover material would allow. The design was quite simple, so we added a little character to the look by cutting the chest pocket and cuffs on the bias — giving the garment a slightly more tailored, Western feel. A great success! It came together as a wonderful matching set. Short-length...

こんにちは。横浜・青葉台 着物リメイクの瑠璃門/るりもんです。以前、同じ生地でパンツをお作りしました。その残布で出来る限りの丈でお作りしたジャケットです。あまりにもシンプルなので、胸元のポケットと袖口は生地をバイアスにしてちょっとだけ洋服の表情に変化をつけてみました。大成功！素敵なセットアップになりました。...
