Comments
About Toshiko, the designer
Toshiko Imaizumi, born 1957 in Kumamoto, is the designer of this garment., She is the daughter of the founder of Imaizumi fashion name, a well know designer brand based in Western Japan.
toshiko's garments primarily mix browns (kakishibu), indigos, greens and off whites. The fabrics are often draped around the body and featured frayed, unfinished edges and a general asymmetrical shape.
Tsutsugaki is the Japanese term for the practice of drawing designs in rice paste on cloth, dyeing the cloth, and then washing the paste off. The rice paste is usually made from sweet rice which is sticky and adheres easily to fabric because of a high starch content. The paste is applied through a tube (the tsutsu) similar to the tubes which are used by bakers to decorate cakes. White cotton is normally the fabric of choice with dye applied resulting in a white on black design. Often designs are patterned after creatures from Japanese mythology such as the crane or the tortoise, or a family crest, or a name in kanji. Flowers and trees are common motifs as well.
