Nocturne is a study in restraint. A vintage Japanese black haori sourced directly from Japan, designed to move quietly through your everyday wardrobe. The outer silk is deep, matte black — fluid, understated, and endlessly wearable — while the interior reveals a soft pale lining with delicate woven motifs, only visible in motion. This contrast is intentional. In traditional Japanese dress, beauty is often hidden — revealed slowly, personally, and without display. Worn open like a blazer, Nocturne layers effortlessly over tanks, bodysuits, denim, shorts, or dresses. The silhouette is relaxed and architectural, with wide sleeves and a gentle drape that creates shape without structure. It sharpens casual outfits and softens stronger ones, adapting seamlessly from morning errands to late evenings. This is not occasion wear. This is an everyday heirloom.
