The composition of this hitoe omeshi-meisen kimono features elegant white lilies with delicate pink stamens interwoven among stylized whirlpool patterns rendered in concentric circles of deep burgundy, black, and olive green. Early Showa period (1926-1940), Japan

This enchanting hitoe omeshi-meisen kimono presents a masterful synthesis of natural and geometric motifs against a serene pale blue ground. The composition features elegant white lilies with delicate pink stamens interwoven among stylized whirlpool patterns rendered in concentric circles of deep burgundy, black, and olive green. The juxtaposition creates a dynamic visual rhythm where the organic curves of the blooming lilies flow harmoniously with the hypnotic spiral forms of the whirlpools, suggesting the eternal dance between natural growth and cyclical motion.

The design reflects the sophisticated aesthetic sensibilities of the late Taisho to early Showa periods, when Japanese textile artists were experimenting with bold pattern combinations that bridged traditional and modern sensibilities. The whirlpool motifs evoke the influence of Art Deco's fascination with geometric repetition and optical effects, while maintaining connection to classical Japanese water imagery found in traditional art forms. The silk and rayon blend fabric allows for crisp definition of both the detailed lily petals and the precise concentric circles, demonstrating the technical innovations that made such complex pattern work possible during this era.

Symbolically, the pairing of lilies and whirlpools creates a rich narrative of purity and transformation—lilies representing rebirth and spiritual awakening while whirlpools suggest the powerful forces of change and the cyclical nature of existence. This combination would have resonated particularly during Japan's period of rapid modernization, when traditional values were being reconsidered within contemporary contexts. The cooling blue palette and lightweight construction make this an ideal summer garment, while the sophisticated patterning elevates it beyond purely functional clothing into the realm of wearable art.

🍂 It’s chunky knitwear season here. This Schiaparelli rustic sweater will do nicely. Ca 1935, wool & leather. Via The Met here: www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...

This sweater is an example of Schiaparelli's penchant for using off-beat closures, construction details and intriguing fabrications to impart an artistic flair to her often simple silhouettes. Schiaparelli frequently used clever shapes and innovative materials for her closures and the rolled leather log buttons seen on this sweater are a clever example of that, MET

Incense burner, 16th century, Japan

This exquisite 16th-century Japanese incense burner (kōro) features a rounded, lobed cylindrical body of deep black lacquer topped with an intricately cast, openwork copper-alloy dome lid. The lid is pierced with a precise reticulated lattice pattern inspired by traditional woven basketry (kagome), allowing aromatic smoke to rise freely from the interior chamber. The lower vessel is decorated in delicate gold sprinkled lacquer (maki-e), portraying a serene grove of bamboo stems and leafy fronds emerging from a dense field of fine gold dust (nashiji). The lobed contours of the vessel imitate a melon or squash, adding an organic, rhythmic dimension to the object's form. Soft reflections shimmer across the dark lacquer surface, highlighting the contrast between the matte copper lid and the brilliant gold leaf details. The object awakens an intimate, sensory ritual atmosphere: the faint, warm scent of burning agarwood (jinkō) or sandalwood drifting through openwork metal, the lingering aroma of aged cedar lacquer, the smooth, cool feel of polished lacquer against the fingertips, and the quiet stillness of a formal tea room gathered around an incense ceremony (kōdō).

Dazzle camouflage was created during WW1 to protect British ships from German artillery - it works by making it difficult to estimate range of speed and heading. Edward Wadsworth supervised the design of of the camouflage patterns. This is his 'Dazzle Ships in Drydock,' from 1919

I love this example of refashioning. Whilst the chopping of an 18th century man’s waistcoat might not be quite the thing today, it is a beautiful reimagining of a garment that retains its original details but wholly in the style of #1950s womenswear #museumatFIT #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
