What is a haori?
The haori is a traditional Japanese jacket, a tailored covering characterized by the classic T-shape typical of the kimono, although it is shorter than the kimono.
Unlike the kimono, the haori does not feature overlapping closures: it is traditionally worn open or tucked in at the front, joining the two pieces with small decorative cords called haori himo.
The variety of weaves: it can be made of smooth silk, crepe (chirimen), or damask (rinzu), and embellished with exquisite hand-embroidered designs.
How to Wear Your Haori
The beauty of the haori is its versatility. Here are some tips for integrating it into your style:
Casual Look: Wear it open over a white t-shirt and jeans for a modern and elegant contrast.
Formal Look: Slip it over a little black dress or an evening gown to replace the classic blazer with something unique.
Accessories: Traditionally, it closes at the front with himo laces, but you can leave it open to highlight the interior decoration or the shirt underneath.
Care and Maintenance (Vintage Silk)
Because it is a precious piece of natural silk, it requires some care:
Washing: We recommend dry cleaning only at specialized centers.
Ironing: If necessary, iron at low heat, placing a cotton cloth between the iron and the silk. Do not use steam.
Storage: Store hung or folded in a dry place, away from direct sunlight.
