Frill kimono - Lian

Our Frill Kimono is a testament to heritage and modern femininity, designed to make women feel empowered, celebrated, and in tune with their evolving identities. Crafted from upcycled Banarasi saris, this one-of-a-kind piece pairs rich turquoise tones with intricate ivory and chocolate accents, creating a striking balance between softness, elegance, and depth.

Featuring cascading frill panels and heritage-inspired motifs woven throughout the textile, the silhouette moves beautifully with every step. The flowing shape creates graceful movement, transforming a timeless layering piece into a statement of individuality and craftsmanship. Inspired by Cape Malay Women, from Malaysia, Indonesia to South Africa.
