Nishijin Textiles





Some snapshots from our visit to Nishijin Textiles Centre in Kyoto. This turned out to provide us with an amazing wealth of information regarding the production of kimono fabrics! We were treated to a catwalk show of kimonos followed by demonstrations by skilled craftsmen and women on the different techniques that are used to produce the fabrics and prints.
