Organic Cotton Kurume Kasuri 3WAY Dress – Indigo (SS27, ships end of April)

First order period: now open through Dec 24, 2026, 11:59 p.m. (JST)

<p><strong>Only 16 made. A naturally indigo-dyed dress, made to stay with you for years.</strong></p>
<p>Easy to wear, yet always put together. The older we get, the more that is what we want from our clothes. We dyed organic cotton made to international standards with natural indigo, and spent about four months creating this fabric from scratch, just for this dress.</p>
<p>Wear it forward for a clean V-neck. Turn it around for a more formal U-neck. Undo every button and it becomes a light open layer. One dress, three looks.</p>
<p>Elbow-length sleeves gently cover the upper arms. A high waist that falls into a soft A-line skims the midsection. You can stop worrying about your figure and simply stand a little taller.</p>
<p>The fabric has a substantial weight: wear it on its own in spring and summer, and layer it over a turtleneck or pants in fall and winter. It becomes a piece you reach for all year round.</p>

<p><strong>■ When to wear it</strong></p>
<p>On its own in spring and summer, over a turtleneck in fall and winter, it goes to the office. For days when you want to dress up a little, dinner with friends, or a night at the theater, wear it as a U-neck for a polished look. It is right at home at your child's school ceremony, too. When you travel, unbutton it and wear it as a layer for cool mornings and evenings. When a delivery arrives, throw it on and head to the door. And on family occasions, match it with your children's or grandchildren's indigo pieces.</p>

<h3>Semi-custom: choose your buttons and length</h3>
<p>Every combination is the same price. Both buttons are plant-based.</p>
<p><strong>Brown for weekends: Coconut shell buttons</strong><br>
Made from coconut shells, with natural warmth and every button a little different. They sit softly against the indigo for a relaxed, approachable look. These are the buttons shown in the photos.</p>
<p><strong>Black for the office: Corozo nut buttons</strong><br>
Made from tagua palm seeds, with a soft sheen and refined texture for a more polished look.</p>
<p><strong>Length: Standard / +10 cm</strong><br>
Standard length is 109.5 cm (43.1 in); +10 cm is 119.5 cm (47.0 in). Choose the balance that suits you and your height.</p>
<p>*The photo of the black corozo buttons is an illustration based on a button sample.</p>

<p><strong>■ Made to last</strong></p>
<p>V-neck, U-neck, or open layer: change how you wear it to suit your plans and mood, and it still feels new years from now.</p>
<p>Soft gathers at the high waist and a tie you adjust from the inside. Even as your body changes, a quick pull of the tie gives you an A-line that fits just right.</p>
<p>Roll up the elbow-length sleeves and the Kurume kasuri pattern peeks out. Each cuff has an opening for elastic; thread in your own elastic and the sleeves gather softly for a different look (elastic not included).</p>
<p>The button side of the front is lined top to bottom with cotton interfacing, so the placket stays firm through years of buttoning and unbuttoning.</p>
<p>Pockets on both sides are deep enough for a smartphone, so you can head out with your hands free.</p>

<p><strong>■ Material and craft</strong></p>
<p>The fabric is organic cotton made to international standards, carefully dyed with natural indigo. It takes about four months to make from scratch, just for this dress. The patterned parts use a Kurume kasuri remnant called "Indigo Ombré Stripe (Navy)." The stripes melt softly from deep indigo to pale blue, and the color comes out differently on every piece, so no two dresses are ever alike. Running vertically down the sides, they draw the eye lengthwise for a long, clean line and shift in character every time you move.</p>
<p>Kurume kasuri is a traditional woven textile from Fukuoka, Japan, with a history of about 220 years. The pattern is woven from yarns dyed in advance, so each piece shows slight variations in how the pattern appears.</p>
