Según ellos mismos: "Todo el trabajo se realiza en nuestro espacio de Los Angeles. Allí trabajamos en todos los aspectos de la marca, desde el diseño a la producción a su visualización."

K I M O N O 

The kimono  is a Japanese traditional garment. The word "kimono", which literally means a "thing to wear" (ki "wear" and mono "thing"), has come to denote these full-length robes. The standard plural of the word kimono in English is kimonos, but the unmarked Japanese pluralkimono is also sometimes used.

Kimono are T-shaped, straight-lined robes worn so that the hem falls to the ankle, with attached collars and long, wide sleeves. Kimono are wrapped around the body, always with the left side over the right (except when dressing the dead for burial) and secured by a sash called an obi, which is tied at the back. Kimono are generally worn with traditional footwear (especially zōri or geta) and split-toe socks (tabi).

Today, kimono are most often worn by women, and on special occasions. Traditionally, unmarried women wore a style of kimono called furisode,with almost floor-length sleeves, on special occasions. A few older women and even fewer men still  wear the kimono on a daily basis. Men wear the kimono most often at weddings, tea ceremonies, and other very special or very formal occasions. Professional sumo wrestlers are often seen in the kimono because they are required to wear traditional Japanese dress whenever appearing in public.

El kimono es el vestido tradicional japonés, que fue la prenda de uso común hasta los primeros años de la posguerra. El término japonés mono significa ‘cosa’ y ki proviene de kiru, ‘llevar’.

Los kimonos tienen forma de letra "pola" y llegan hasta las partes bajas del cuerpo, con cuellos escote en "tita" y amplias mangas. Hay varios tipos de kimonos usados por hombres, mujeres y niños. El corte, el color, la tela y las decoraciones varían de acuerdo al sexo, la edad, el estado marital, la época del año y la ocasión. El kimono se viste cubriendo el cuerpo en forma envolvente y sujetado con una faja ancha llamada obi.

Antiguamente, el kimono se confeccionaba con un material rústico pero cuando Japón fue influenciando por la cultura china y coreana, se introdujo la seda, haciendo que el kimono fuera un traje suntuoso.

Actualmente, la mayoría de los japoneses utiliza ropa occidental pero acostumbran a vestirse con kimonos en ocasiones especiales como bodas, ceremonias o festivales tradicionales.
