Vintage purple silk haori with a small geometric pattern and karako lining

The haori is a traditional Japanese jacket, originally worn only by men during the Edo period, but later adopted by women starting from the Meiji era (1868–1912). Today, it is a versatile garment that can elevate any outfit, whether worn as a cover-up or a mini-dress.

This haori is made of soft and lightweight violet silk, decorated with a small geometric pattern that gives it a refined and modern look. The inner lining is embellished with a vibrant decoration depicting children in Chinese karako clothing (or “Tang-era children”), figures that in Japanese tradition symbolize luck and prosperity, accompanied by lucky charms.

Entirely handmade in Japan, this haori is a testament to Japanese tailoring and attention to detail. It comes with haori-himo, the braided and embroidered ties used to close the haori at the front, allowing you to personalize your style.

This haori is perfect for any occasion: it can be worn as a cover-up for an elegant and sophisticated look, or as a mini-dress for a touch of originality.
