Golden Purple Hanadori – Vintage Silk Kimono Denim Jacket / 花鳥のデニムジャケット
 
This distinctive denim jacket is handcrafted in London, combining classic denim with rare vintage Japanese kimono silk, carefully sourced by Risa from trusted artisans across Japan.

The jacket features a Golden Purple Hanadori kimono silk panel, inspired by traditional bird-and-flower motifs (花鳥), which represent the vitality of nature and are considered auspicious symbols of longevity and happiness. Rich purple tones with golden accents create a striking contrast against the structured denim base, while the vintage silk stitched onto both front and back panels adds fluid elegance and cultural significance to the piece.

The base denim comes from a standard ready-to-wear jacket, personally thrifted by Risa at a London store, and then carefully hand-finished with the vintage silk panels. Each jacket is unique and one-of-a-kind, bridging contemporary fashion with traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
