NHK news
One World in Kimono: Designing Nations (article)
Summary
Kimono is Japan's traditional garment.
The owner of this project is Yoshimasa Takakura who thought that he wanted to break an image that Kimono was stale, change it and young people to be able to receptive more.
He and artisans started to design and produce kimonos and sashes representing countries across the globe.
The kimono proposed this time was the innovative design and it's demonstrated that any type of design can be represented by a kimono.
It will be wonderful that all countries can be expressed by each kimono in the 2020 Tokyo Olympic.
You can see the kimono that your country is expressed by using Japan’ traditional garment.
