Customized original doll
-Overview-
Kimono with family's thoughts, sunny clothes worn when you were a child, many cracks that have been carefully inherited-Consultation about whether you can use these for dolls at exhibitions around the country I have been working on it for about 30 years.
We will change the kimono/cloths you have handmade into doll costumes and attach them to Kobo Tomo's dolls. By cutting, you can leave the original image of the kimono as it is, or you can recreate it in a completely different atmosphere depending on how the pattern is taken. You can also use a scarf for the lining of the dress.
Recently, I think that the things that are important to all generations are being reviewed. We will make a kimono with memories and a doll with memories of the kimono, so that you can put it on your side for a long time.
The kimono given to me by my mother, the kimono I wore when I was a daughter.
We will remake the memorable piece, dress it on the checkered doll of Kobo Tomo, and deliver it to you.
Why don't you make your own doll with one kimono that you are not completely attached to?
Cutting
Cutting is like finding a new life
Cutting is the most important work process that determines the success or failure of costume making, and it is a scene where the knowledge, experience, and skills cultivated for dolls and kimonos are demonstrated.
Your attachment and memories in one kimono will never be spoiled.
tailoring
Taking advantage of the goodness of traditional kimono with a sense that can withstand modern sensibilities,
Carefully and lovingly tailored
Kobo Tomo's costume tailoring uses unique measurements and designs to adorably reflect the appearance of the checkered doll and best enhance the value of the kimono.
