MoonShine Materials 2018 Collection

Ancient know-how and new technologies meet in the MoonShine Japanese Materials collections that embody the renewal of Japanese textile tradition.

For centuries, skillful weaves of warp and weft have given life to the fluid and gentle seductive power of silk, which finds its most emblematic and ritual expression in the kimono.

In Kyoto, Japanese cultural capital, Isao Kitabayashi founded in 2013 MoonShine: a sort of hotbed of innovation in which the best in Japanese textile craftsmanship is accurately selected and distilled to enhance its virtues and experiment new processes, in a yet unseen weave between tradition and technology.
