Kimino means ‘the thing to wear’

KIMONOS of TOKYO: Japan has a very rich textile history, with the kimono being a major focus of interest and artistic expression.Meaning ‘the thing to wear’, the term kimono was first adopted in the mid-19th century.Originally worn by commoners, or as an undergarment by the aristocracy, from the 16th century kimono became the principal item of dress for all classes and both sexes.It is still an enduring symbol of traditional Japanese culture today.

Pre Loved Tokyo Fashion


If the contemporary does not speak to you and you are your own rugged individual with your own defined style, then it is a ride on the Tozai Line (the Cyan Blue line) out to Koenji. It is here that you will be spoilt with choice of Americana and European fashion from the 50s, 60s 70s and 80s.

And it will not empty the bank. SLUT is but one of the many stores that lovingly present a wide range of clothes and accessories that will speak to the rogue ‘fashionister’. All along Look Street just right of the South exit from the train station…you will find it, I am sure.
