Here at Kiriko, we believe in the principle of Mottainai, which means that the old can be made new and everything can be used again. Here, we are using small pieces of vintage textiles, too small to be made into clothing, which otherwise might have been thrown away.
Using Ecuador-made straw Panama hats, we decorated them with a band made from vintage Japanese fabrics. The bright fabrics and patterns were originally intended to use for Kimono and Yukata, but are now paired together to make unique hatbands. A stylish, breezy hat for the summer.
