Kimono Design: An Introduction to Textiles and Patterns uses hundreds of photographs and a wealth of information on colors, fabrics and embellishments to paint a portrait of Japanese culture, art and thought. Lavish classical patterns, sweeping scenes, and the many motifs that have been woven, dyed, painted or embroidered into these textiles reveal a reflectiveness, a sense of humor, and an appreciation of exquisite beauty that is uniquely Japanese. Organized according to motifs traditionally associated with each season of the year, Kimono Design interprets the kimono's special language as expressed in depictions of: Flowers and grasses Birds and other animals Symbols of power, luck and prestige Land-and-seascapes scenes from literature, history and daily life scenes of travel and the Japanese concept of other lands and many others… Extensive notes on all the motifs demonstrate how the kimono reflects changing times and a sense of the timeless. Information on jewelry, hairpins and other accessories is scattered throughout to give a fuller sense of the Japanese art of dress. This is a volume that Japanophiles, historians, artists and designers will all cherish.

Japan’s engagement with Western clothing, culture, and art in the mid-nineteenth century transformed the traditional kimono and began a cross-cultural sartorial dialogue that continues to this day. This publication explores the kimono’s fascinating modern history and its notable influence on Western fashion. Initially signaling the wearer’s social position, marital status, age, and wealth, older kimono designs gave way to the demands of modernized and democratized twentieth-century lifestyles as well as the preferences of the emancipated “new woman.” Conversely, inspiration from the kimono’s silhouette liberated Western designers such as Paul Poiret and Madeline Vionnet from traditional European tailoring. Juxtaposing never-before-published Japanese textiles from the John C. Weber Collection with Western couture, this book places the kimono on the stage of global fashion history.

The Kimono in Print: 300 Years of Japanese Design will be the first ever publication devoted to examining the kimono as a major source of inspiration, and later vehicle for experimentation, in Japanese print design and culture from the Edo period (1603-1868) to the Meiji period (1868-1912). Print artists, through the wide circulation of prints, have documented the ever-evolving trends in fashion, have popularized certain styles of dress, and have even been known to have designed kimonos. Some famous print designers also were directly involved in the kimono business as designers of kimono pattern books, such as Nishikawa Sukenobu (1671-1751) and Okumura Masanobu (1686-1764). The dialogue between fashion and print is illustrated here by approximately 70 Japanese prints and illustrated books--by Nishikawa Sukenobu, Suzuki Harunobu, Utagawa Kunisada, Kikukawa Eizan, and Kamisaka Sekka, among others. The group of five essays features new research and scholarship by an international group of leading scholars working today at the intersection of the Japanese print and kimono worlds and the social, cultural, and global significances circulated therein.

FOR A FEW SAMPLE IMAGES, PLEASE GO TO WWW.FUYUYA.COM This small sized colouring book contains 28 images of kimono designs from 1716, when this style of kimono was known as kosode. The original books, known as hinagatabon, were sample books for the ordering of new kimonos or historical records of the designs worn in those days. The lines are usually thick, as they are on the original prints, and this is customary for Japanese prints. Please note that this colouring book is designed mainly for pencil, crayon and felt tip pens. It is not advised to use water colouring or big (whiteboard size) markers, as both may bleed through. If you do want to try with watercolours or big sized markers you may want to use an additional carton in between the pages or separate the pages from the book. We hope you will enjoy these wonderful images.

This kimono design manuscript was executed during the Edo period reflecting the strict sumptuary laws passed by the Shogun against ostentatious, or elaborately decorated kimonos. Despite the constant attempts by the government to control the popular designs & fashion, No Theatre costumes often displayed the wildest designs, and of interest, Yokota has included a design at the end of the manuscript with three Japanese No masks. The designs include flowers budding, scenes of flowering trees in spring by a creek, wheat stalks, honeysuckle with blue flowers, gorgeous peacock flower with metal ingot holding it down, stylized flowering plants, falling leaves, butterflies, delicately painted & coloured pine cones with kimono pattern outline, and more. The Yokota family emerged to prominence in the Edo Period as merchants trading in grains, manufacturing soy sauce, and later textiles. The family maintained branches of their mercantile operations in Kawagoe, Matsuyama, Edo (Tokyo), and Kyoto. In 1819, members of the family were raised to the Samurai Class. See: Boettcher, The Kimono Imagined (1987); Ryujin, Yokota Gorobei and the history of the building of Saitama Risona Bank's Kawagoe branch. -- information provided by vendor.

What is the kimono? Everyday garment? Art object? Symbol of Japan? As this book shows, the kimono has served all of these roles, its meaning changing across time and with the perspective of the wearer or viewer. Kimono: A Modern History begins by exposing the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century foundations of the modern kimono fashion industry. It explores the crossover between ‘art’ and ‘fashion’ in this period at the hands of famous Japanese painters who worked with clothing pattern books and painted directly onto garments. With Japan’s exposure to Western fashion in the nineteenth century, and Westerners’ exposure to Japanese modes of dress and design, the kimono took on new associations and came to symbolize an exotic culture and an alluring female form. In the aftermath of the Second World War, the kimono industry was sustained through government support. The line between fashion and art became blurred as kimonos produced by famous designers were collected for their beauty and displayed in museums, rather than being worn as clothing. Today, the kimono has once again taken on new dimensions, as the Internet and social media proliferate images of the kimono as a versatile garment to be integrated into a range of individual styles. Kimono: A Modern History, the inspiration for a major exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York,not only tells the story of a distinctive garment’s ever-changing functions and image, but provides a novel perspective on Japan’s modernization and encounter with the West.
