The TOWAVASE 2025 Autumn/Winter collection has started arriving.
TOWAVASE is always a reliable choice.
It's a unique brand that values natural materials that are gentle on the body and the craftsmanship of artisans.
Let me introduce this season's collection right away.
Please bear with me.
First to arrive is the popular silk Volant series, which was also produced last season.
It is dyed at a factory in Kyoto specializing in Japanese traditional clothing and silk dyeing.
Volant means "frill" in French.
The pockets are frilly, and they're absolutely adorable!
This time, the short robe comes with a corsage that can be used like a necklace.
The corsage is handmade by Japanese artisans, who cut, dye, and bundle it, making it feel very special.
It's exciting to wear it together or to use it with other outfits.
The pants are also frilly.
They have frills on the pockets and hems.
Since pants touch the skin directly, you might appreciate the quality of the silk even more.
The Volant series includes silk and a much-anticipated knit, making its debut.
When it comes to TOWAVASE knits, cashmere comes to mind.
They use 100% top-quality cashmere from Inner Mongolia, China, and it's all knitted in Inner Mongolia as well.
Furthermore, only high-quality white cashmere is used for dyeing, resulting in a luxurious feel.
Personally, I have a cashmere knit that I've been wearing for several years, and
because fine threads are used, it's getting fluffier and fluffier!
TOWAVASE cashmere might be expensive, but once you wear it, it almost feels like a bargain, lol.
The material is excellent, the comfort is superb, it's truly wonderful.
This Volant series includes a turtleneck and a cardigan, available in ivory, charcoal gray, and black.
The ivory is a flattering, not-too-bright white that blends well with the skin.
I recommend black to those who usually don't wear frills.
No, I especially want those who don't wear them to try them on!
There are single-ply and double-ply options for the yarn, but this time, CREER has only selected the more accessible single-ply.
Since it seems like we'll have a long, warm autumn again this year, I think single-ply will be warm enough.
Furthermore, and this is a bit complicated, for the single-ply, you can choose with or without stitching.
The stitching is done by hand around the neckline and on the pockets.
The price is the same whether there is stitching or not, so I was very torn when ordering.
For ivory and black, we chose the clean, timeless stitch-free option.
For charcoal gray, the stitching blended in nicely and looked even cuter, so we only stocked the stitched version.
The sleeves of the cardigan are particularly a bit short.
If you layer the turtleneck and cardigan, the frills double, and the cuteness is infinite.
The body is roomy, but it's thin, and the shoulder seams are dropped so it doesn't look bulky.
Yet, it doesn't cling to the body shape, making for a neat silhouette.
The neck isn't too tight, nor too loose.
It looks cute when folded about halfway down.
By the way, just a little preview: another cashmere knit series, the Basque series, is also scheduled to arrive this autumn.
Yes, it's the popular striped knit from last year (the image is also from last year).
Last year, it was only a boat neck, but this year, turtlenecks and sailor collars have also been made, so please look forward to them.
Next up.
The Manon series features sequins and beads hand-embroidered by artisans at an embroidery workshop in India.
The bead embroidery is captivating, truly an art piece.
Wearing something like this is sure to make you feel wonderful!
The headband, which sold out in a flash last time.
The same embroidery is on the other side.
This is a padded and warm jacket.
The embroidery is only on the right side.
The shape is the same as the masterpiece Permanent Jacket.
Of course, the fabric is silk. The lining is linen.
Finally, a large drawstring-style (?) bag has also arrived.
Both sides have the same embroidery, and the fabric is the same as the jacket (padded).
This bag will elevate your everyday outfits!
TOWAVASE items are handmade, which inevitably makes them a bit more expensive, but their appeal lies in their satisfying finish and unique designs and fabrics.
These are items you can cherish for a long time, so I hope you'll take a look.
See you again soon!
