CLOTHING Look for new, exciting pieces soon!
You won't believe the uniqueness and beauty of our wearable art clothing, featuring designer,Yasuko. Shawls, vintage clothing like Kimonos plus one-of-a-kind Jackets, made from Japanese vintage textiles, preserving the art but transformed into a wonderful piece of wearable art clothing. Become enthralled in the exquisite beauty of these vintage textiles, created through exotic techniques of weaving, dying, and fine embroidery, in many instances a disappearing art.
Naturally to go with your jackets you need the basics in silk clothing as well, and here also, Yasuko does not disappoint. She has a line of silk tops, silk skirts, and silk pants in a variety of lush and frequently vibrant colors. Whether you like the flowing look of bias cut material or the clean look of straight cut, Yasuko has silk tops and silk skirts available.
If you are especially fond of Kimonos, you can choose from a selection of vintage pieces, including Japanese Wedding Kimonos, of the highest quality art to wear found anywhere. Yasuko had a special showing in 2004 at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco, and was there again in December 2005, including not only Kimonos, but Japanese Haori Jackets, her one-of-a-kind designer jackets, plus Japanese Obi and Shawls from Japanese vintage textiles. See our pictures here on the website to fully appreciate that they are all forms of wearable art, whether one-of-a-kind jackets or uniquely available vintage art to wear like Kimonos, Shawls, and Japanese Haori Jackets.
JEWELRY New Artists and pieces soon!
Jewelry, do we have JEWELRY, primarily bracelets and necklaces. Find a wonderful sterling silver bracelet. You will be amazed at our designer bracelets and necklaces by Kathy Askijian, where she transforms various metals into pieces that look like material or lace, frequently encrusted with gems for that added sparkle, becoming wearable art jewelry. Imagine metal necklaces that look like fabric draped around the neck, or bracelets that appear to be finely woven lace, but the bracelets are made of silver, copper, bronze and/or brass. Occasionally we have designer jewelry by Hitomi as well, as we do now in one of her necklaces inspired by sea life. Each of our designer bracelets and necklaces fulfills the vision of wearable art jewelry.
