A classic blouse made from cotton bamboo material dyed with bamboo charcoal.
The gathers that spread out from the switching part of the back create a soft and round silhouette, and the hem part draws a gentle curve, while the length is longer in the back. The front opening is decorated with a patchwork that combines different materials such as silk chiffon, cotton, and ramie in the image of a bamboo forest. The texture of the material stands out because the shade of the dye differs depending on the difference in the fiber. The front and cuffs are lined with glittering shell buttons.
The cotton bamboo material made by INFOBANK in Fukui uses fine and soft bamboo that grows in areas from Sichuan Province in China to Vietnam and Laos. Developed by blending bamboo fiber extracted from natural bamboo with Supima cotton fiber, the yarn has both the strength of bamboo and the softness of cotton.
Bamboo fiber has a refreshing feel and does not get stuffy, so it is cool in the summer and warm in the winter, making it comfortable to wear all year round. Bamboo grows so fast that it can grow 30cm to 1m per day, and because it has antibacterial properties, it does not require fertilizer and has a low environmental impact. I think it would be good if bamboo fiber could be used more.
Bamboo charcoal dyeing was realized through an encounter with in Ashikaga, Tochigi Prefecture. The raw material is bamboo charcoal that has been cut and carbonized in the mountains of Ashikaga. It takes a whole day to make the pigment finer in a mortar until it becomes fine particles, and it is dyed purely with bamboo charcoal. Bamboo charcoal, which has countless holes, has excellent absorption and decomposition power, so it has the effect of deodorizing and controlling humidity, as well as suppressing static electricity. It also has the effect of purifying water, so if you drain the charcoal after dyeing, it will also help purify the water quality and soil. The beautiful gray color and texture are the function of bamboo charcoal and the wisdom and perseverance of craftsmen.
For bamboo charcoal dyeing, you can choose from “Dark” and “Light”.
