Kimono Design: An Introduction to Textiles and Patterns uses hundreds of photographs and a wealth of information on colors, fabrics and embellishments to paint a portrait of Japanese culture, art and thought. Lavish classical patterns, sweeping scenes, and the many motifs that have been woven, dyed, painted or embroidered into these textiles reveal a reflectiveness, a sense of humor, and an appreciation of exquisite beauty that is uniquely Japanese. Organized according to motifs traditionally associated with each season of the year, Kimono Design interprets the kimono's special language as expressed in depictions of: Flowers and grasses Birds and other animals Symbols of power, luck and prestige Land-and-seascapes scenes from literature, history and daily life scenes of travel and the Japanese concept of other lands and many others… Extensive notes on all the motifs demonstrate how the kimono reflects changing times and a sense of the timeless. Information on jewelry, hairpins and other accessories is scattered throughout to give a fuller sense of the Japanese art of dress. This is a volume that Japanophiles, historians, artists and designers will all cherish.

Even in Japan, with its rich tradition of textile art, handcrafted textiles are rapidly becoming a rarity, as they are replaced by mass-produced bolts of cloth that can never duplicate the feel or vibrancy of those created by the personal touch of a master craftsman with an original idea. The importance of obtaining just the right shade of indigo blue, or artfully stenciling on a flower or a cloud, or weaving a fabric so that it appears as richly decorated as a tapestry all make for the allure of Japanese fabrics. Whether for a kimono, a sash, or a coat, cloth in Japan is woven, dyed, and embroidered with infinite care. The professional pride and craft techniques of the Japanese have resulted in visual and tactile masterpieces, and Japanese textile craftsmen are deservedly ranked among the most skilled in the world. Thankfully, even during the breathtaking modernization of Japan, a small number of artists and craftsmen are struggling to keep this ancient art alive. The Japanese have traditionally viewed textiles as an embodiment of no only beauty but as family heirlooms and repositories of history, making the study of Japanese fabric a door into another culture, another people, another time. In Textile Art of Japan, sunny Yang and Rochelle Narasin venture through that door, inviting the reader to follow them. They start with a brief but informative history of those most typical forms of Japanese dress, the kimono and the obi, and then move on to introduce the techniques of dyeing, weaving, and needlework that distinguish Japanese textiles, discussing their traditions, practical methods, and use of different types of fabric.

"This illustrated volume presents highlights from the Victoria & Albert Museum's extensive collection of Japanese textiles and dress." "Ranging from embroidered kimono and woven actor's robes to the indigo-dyed textiles of rural Japan, this book explores the various patterning techniques that have been employed by Japanese textile artists from the seventeenth century to the present day. The richness and variety of the textiles are conveyed by the specially commissioned photographs, which include images of garments, bedding covers, gift covers, doorway curtains, decorative hangings, fabric lengths and samples." "Offering a wealth of inspiration to contemporary designers, this book provides an introduction to a vibrant cultural tradition, and should appeal to anyone interested in textiles or Japanese art and design." --Book Jacket.
