衣服との向き合い方
なぜ、育つ衣服なのか
私たちは
衣服や生地も人と同じように育つものだと考えています
天然繊維の生地は 使うほどに馴染み
時を重ねるごとにその人の表情になっていきます
それは劣化ではなく 変化
消耗ではなく 積み重なり
流行に追われるのではなく
誰かの暮らしに静かに寄り添い続けるもの
やがて家族へと受け継がれ
また誰かの時間をまとう
長く着るなかで 色が変わることもあります
それは その人と重ねた時間の証
擦れや色の揺らぎも、暮らしの痕跡です
もし色あせたなら
草木や珈琲など
身のまわりのもので染め直すこともできます
そうしてまた袖を通し
さらに時を重ねていく
誰かに受け継がれながら
やがて土に還っていく
そうあれたら
これ以上のことはありません
それが私たちが衣服をつくる理由です
Why Clothing That Grows...?
We believe that garments and fabrics, like people,
grow over time.
Natural fibers gradually soften and adapt to the body,
and as time passes, they begin to reflect the wearer’s own expression.
This is not deterioration, but change.
Not consumption, but accumulation.
Rather than being driven by trends,
we hope to create pieces that quietly stay close to one’s daily life.
Over time, they may be passed down within a family,
carrying the time of another person.
As they are worn over many years,
their colors may shift.
These changes are traces of time shared with the wearer—
subtle fades and variations, marks of everyday life.
If the color softens,
they can be dyed again with plants or even coffee from our surroundings.
Worn once more,
they continue to gather time.
Passed from one person to another,
and eventually returning to the earth.
If they could exist in this way,
we could ask for nothing more.
