Vintage Upcycled Kimonos
A Classic Twist on the Kimono
We took vintage kimonos then transformed each of them with slight variations so they could be easily worn from day to night.
In each series of photos you will be able to see a few photographs of what the original kimono looked like.
Celebrate AANHPI Month with Us!
We will be revealing a small capsule of these upcycled vintage kimonos for purchase this Thursday, May 25th from 4:30-7:30 to celebrate AANHPI Month.
Sip + Shop with CWB X Summer Club!
We will be offering their signature drink POGMOSA to adults over the age of 21 years old.
Cultural Celebration
First of all, what is AANHPI?
AANHPI Month is a time to celebrate the diverse cultures and contributions of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders.
Kimonos are traditional Japanese garments with a rich history and cultural significance.
Today we are showcasing upcycled kimonos to honor and celebrate my Japanese heritage while promoting sustainable practices.
Environmental Consciousness
We value ways to promote sustainability by reducing waste, conserving resources, and minimizing the environmental impact of fashion production.
One of the things we love to offer at CWB are eco-friendly options for our customers.
Working with vintage kimonos are a unique way we can show that commitment.
Artistic Expression
These upcycled kimonos allows us to merge traditional aesthetics with contemporary designs creating one of a kind pieces in the boutique.
Cultural Preservation
AANHPI Month serves as a platform to promote the diverse cultural heritage of my ancestors.
These upcycled kimonos play a small but beautiful role in preserving Japanese traditions and craftsmanship.
We hope you can join us on Thursday, May 25th!
We will also be offering a gift with purchase for every sale over $50 during our event (between 4:30-7:30 pm) while supplies last!
