FASHIONFounded in 1652, Domyo has been passing down the art of traditional kumihimo braiding for generations. This September, the company released a new design as part of its contemporary series featuring modern, artistic designs. The latest release, inspired by William Morris’s famous Strawberry Thief motif, is already winning over kimono enthusiasts.
Strawberry Thief is one of the most popular repeating designs by William Morris, the British textile designer who spearheaded the Arts and Crafts movement in the 19th century, and remains beloved worldwide to this day. Drawing inspiration from this iconic motif, Domyo has created a stunning obijime (tie for obi sashes) using the korai-gumi braiding technique, known for its fine and intricate patterns, combining striking modern colors to bring a fresh, stylish accent to any traditional ensemble. With orders now being accepted until the end of December 2024, why not add a bit of flair to your kimono with this eye-catching piece?
