Ochre Silk Haori: Large Starburst Shibori Pattern

This silk woman’s haori featurrs an all-over pattern achieved through the traditional shibori (tie-dye) technique. The garment is rendered in a warm, ochre-gold hue, decorated with a rhythmic series of large-scale, stylized starburst or floral motifs in a deeper terracotta-orange.

The composition is defined by the unique, organic texture of the shibori process, where the silk is bound or knotted before dyeing to create soft, feathered edges and a characteristic "crinkled" visual depth. Each circular motif features radiating, undulating arms that interconnect to form a web-like architectural grid across the entire garment. This piece reimagines classical geometric patterns through a daring, oversized scale and a saturated tonal palette, resulting in a garment that feels both ancient in its craftsmanship and remarkably modern in its visual impact.

It's in very good condition with minor imperfections, measuring 49 inches from sleeve-end to sleeve-end, with a height of 35 inches (124 x 89 cm).
