The Evolving Canvas of Kyoto Yuzen:
From Imperial Robes to Global Sarees ✨

A wave of admiration swept recently, as Princess Aiko graced the TICAD conference adorned in a truly exquisite kimono.

This noble Kyoto Yuzen garment was, remarkably, crafted by .senshou , one of the very same dye masters behind our Kyoto Yuzen Sarees !!

The kimono perfectly complemented Princess Aiko’s gentle demeanor, embodying the timeless grace of Japanese traditional beauty.

Many of the kimonos worn by the Imperial Family for public appearances are made of Kyoto Yuzen.

Furthermore, many dye masters who create Kyoto Yuzen Sarees are precisely those entrusted with crafting these exquisite Imperial garments.

This speaks volumes about the unparalleled skill and prestige recognized in Kyoto Yuzen.

It is our profound joy to see the immeasurable beauty of kimono showcased on such an international stage.

Incidentally, the saree I wear as the official ambassador for Kyoto Yuzen Sarees is also a creation by Nishiyama Sensho.

The 12th and 13rd images features a special saree exhibited at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai.

We invite you to witness the boundless possibilities woven by Kyoto Yuzen!

【伝統と革新】✨
京友禅サリーと皇室を彩る京友禅きものの新たな可能性

先日、アフリカ開発会議のお茶会の場で
愛子さまがお召しになられたお着物の美しさに、
感動に包まれました。

その高貴な京友禅のお着物は、なんと京友禅サリーを手がける染匠の一つ、senshouさんが制作されたものです。
大変光栄なことです。

愛子さまのあたたかみ溢れるお人柄に、
この上なくお似合いでいらっしゃいましたね!

皇室の公の場でお召しになるお着物のほとんどが
京友禅と言われており、
多くの染匠がその伝統を引き継いでいます。

そして、京友禅サリーを制作する染匠の多くが、
実は皇室のお着物を手掛けているのです。

これこそ、京友禅の確かな技術と品格が認められている
証に他なりません。

このような国際的な舞台で、
着物の計り知れない美しさを
世界にご発信いただけることは、
私たちにとって大きな喜びです。

男性皇族の方々にも
ぜひ袴を第一礼装としてお召しいただき、
日本の伝統文化の素晴らしさを
一層示していただけたらと願うばかりです。

ちなみに、私が京友禅サリーの公式アンバサダーとして
着用しているサリーは、同じに志山染匠さんの作品です。

12,13枚目は、大阪万博に展示されたサリーです。
京友禅が織りなす無限の可能性を、ぜひご覧ください!

[Thirty-Six Scenes of Mt. Fuji: The Great Wave off Kanagawa]

𝑲𝒚𝒐𝒕𝒐 𝒀𝒖𝒛𝒆𝒏 𝑺𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒔: 𝑾𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑨𝒓𝒕, 𝑻𝒊𝒎𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑬𝒍𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆
Deep indigo waves rise and fall against a golden dawn, Where Fuji stands timeless beneath a tranquil sky. A dance of power and stillness, woven into silk,
A tribute to Japan’s spirit, reimagined in art.
Inspired by Hokusai’s iconic The Great Wave off Kanagawa, this design embodies the harmony between power and serenity.

This saree pays homage to The Great Wave off Kanagawa, one of the most celebrated woodblock prints from Katsushika Hokusai’s Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji series.

Created in the early 19th century, Hokusai’s masterpiece captures the raw force of the sea, with towering waves poised to engulf small boats, while Mount Fuji stands calm and steadfast in the.

By transforming this legendary artwork into a Kyoto Yūzen saree, the design seamlessly blends Japanese
heritage with textile craftsmanship, offering a wearable tribute to one of the world’s most iconic artistic legacies.

Experience the finest custom-made sarees, crafted with the traditional artistry of Kyoto Yuzen dyeing.

A perfect fusion of noble tradition and modern innovation, Kyoto Yuzen Sarees are more than just

This prestigious project is officially recognized by the Japanese government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with strong support from the Kyoto government.

𝑲𝒚𝒐𝒕𝒐 𝒀𝒖𝒛𝒆𝒏 𝑺𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒔: 𝑾𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑨𝒓𝒕, 𝑻𝒊𝒎𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑬𝒍𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆

This breathtaking design features vivid cherry blossom motifs with rich golden accents. Symbolic of
prosperity and joy, these blossoms create a bold, elegant statement that honors Kyoto’s artistic
legacy.

The cherry blossom flower is the national flower of Japan. Cherry blossoms symbolize what in Japanese is called “Mono no aware”, or a delicate sensitivity for the ephemeral.
