This vintage juban (kimono undergarment) features a unique combination of traditional Japanese textiles. The most eye-catching detail is the pair of sleeves, boldly tie-dyed in vibrant shades of purple, teal, and white—offering a striking contrast to the muted, earthy tones of the main body.

 

The outer fabric is made of silk, with sections in soft gray and subtle geometric patterns. The lining is made of cotton, providing a gentle, breathable texture against the skin and creating a beautiful balance between the sheen of silk and the softness of cotton.

 

Originally worn beneath a kimono, this piece can now be appreciated as wearable art or as a collectible textile. The visible signs of age and wear enhance its character and reflect the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi—the beauty found in imperfection and transience.
