STORY
KIEN reimagines vintage tomesode（留袖） kimono as contemporary couture dresses, blending sustainability with traditional Japanese artistry. I created a set of branding materials — including a showroom lookbook, sales brochure, and original stationery — to support both customer engagement and B2B presentations.
The designs focus on translating the brand’s core narrative: giving new life to forgotten kimonos through the hands of Kyoto’s artisans. The materials reflect KIEN’s refined aesthetic — clean, elegant, and rooted in cultural heritage — while also reinforcing its commitment to sustainability and craftsmanship.
