Sari kantha kimonos are unique garments that blend traditional Indian textile art with Japanese-inspired design. Hand crafted from upcycled vintage silk saris, each kimono is one-of-a-kind, showcasing vibrant colours, intricate patterns, and rich cultural history. The kantha stitching—a centuries-old hand-embroidery technique from Bengal—is what sets these garments apart. Artisans meticulously sew rows of running stitches across layers of silk, creating a soft, quilted texture that enhances both beauty and durability.

These kimonos are not only visually striking but also sustainable. By repurposing old saris, they support ethical fashion and reduce textile waste. The flowing kimono silhouette adds a touch of elegance and comfort, making them versatile pieces suitable for loungewear, layering, or statement outerwear.

Each sari kantha kimono tells a story through its fabric—stories of the women who wore the saris, the hands that stitched them, and the cultures they represent. Whether worn casually or as a standout accessory, they offer a fusion of global traditions, artisanal skill, and sustainable style. Ideal for lovers of slow fashion and one-of-a-kind pieces, these kimonos are wearable art that honours heritage while embracing contemporary fashion values.

Our Kimonos are very versatile and can be used as a dressing gown, a beach cover up, a wrap around dress or overdress.

As they are a loose that just tie up at the front they do truly fit all.  They measure 112 cm from shoulder to hem and the sleeves are 65 cm long.  100% upcycled vintage sari.  

We recommend washing by hand with a gentle detergent.  However many customers will wash them on a gentle / delicate cool machine wash.  if washing by machine we would recommend putting them in pillow cover to avoid them getting snagged on other items in the wash.
