A long dress cut from the Tokyo Chōchin fabric, born from a photograph Designer Diego Cortizas took on a walk through Tokyo, of a traditional Japanese paper lantern with vertical bamboo ribs and hand-painted calligraphy.

Through his signature kaleidoscope technique, the image was folded and mirrored across itself until the lantern became a repeating pattern in red, cream, and black.

Printed onto lightweight fabric that resists creasing and travels well. A floor-length silhouette with a V-neck, three-quarter sleeves, and side slits for movement.
