✦ Kimono Description

The distinctive black one-of-a-kind Kalinga Dusk kimono integrates both traditional artistry and modern aesthetics, showcasing a striking combination of black fabric with handwoven detailing from Lubuagan, Kalinga. 
The vibrant woven patterns feature bold yellow, red, green, and white stripes, running along the entire length of the kimono, from the back to the front and sleeves. The intricate handwoven fabric, sourced personally from a little store in the remote village of "Lubuagan", which sources its fabrics directly from the weaver's homes, which we visited together, after a nice little chat.
The weaving technique used was the "Box-Strap" weave, which requires around a week of manual labor, to obtain the required amount of fabric for this kimono.

The fabrics highlights ethical Filipino craftsmanship and brings cultural significance to the piece. The yellow borders add structure and warmth, framing the patterns and creating a bold contrast against the black base. 

This kimono embodies a unique blend of heritage and contemporary style, appealing to those who value cultural authenticity.
