Futuristic A-Typical Kimono Fabric Costumes

I enjoyed participating in the opening reception for Ms. Naruo's design last night at the Nippon Club. The clothing emphasizes geometric stitching and the materials are of very good quality, including silk and more. I felt a new pop and a traditional Japanese sense from her artwork. Moreover, one could try these dresses at the Gallery, which is a great opportunity for anyone to view this exhibition!

Her innovative approach to sewing is considered cutting edge in the clothing industry and presents a whole new level of creative contribution to the design world.
