Denim kimonos and thumping techno beats: Tokyo fashion week paid homage to classic Japanese tailoring with a twist on Tuesday as a third-generation kimono designer showed the latest updates on the ancient attire.
Kimonos are mostly worn on formal occasions in Japan, but designer Jotaro Saito hopes his creations in bright, printed fabrics will seduce Japanese and foreign fashionistas looking to add something original to their everyday wardrobe.
