Colors and patterns to welcome autumn

…………………………………………

The days may still be hot,
but before we know it,
cooler weather will arrive.

At POTPURRI,
we are beginning to think ahead to autumn.

As the season changes,
our wardrobes often move
toward darker colors.

This autumn,
try a small accent at the neck or ankle.
A little color or pattern
can bring a playful touch
to a familiar outfit.

Featured brands

nitorito

The name nitorito brings together the Japanese words for knitting and weaving: knit to ori to.
Yonezawa's scenery, streets and the warmth of its people become textile designs. The names and patterns express an affection for the place.

The scarves use materials derived from natural fibers and have raw edges on all four sides. Felting after weaving helps bind the wool fibers and reduces fraying; handle the edges gently.

A wool scarf is useful from the first cool days. Drape it over your shoulders in autumn or wrap it around your neck in winter. It folds without much bulk, making it easy to carry.

The exhibition also included cushion covers, handkerchiefs and wreaths made with UPCYCLE HOKKAIDO. These combine wood shavings with leftover nitorito yarn and fabric.

NISHIGUCHIKUTSUSHITA

Socks made to bring a little color and comfort to the day.

The idea is a sock whose quality can be felt when you pick it up, put it on and take it off—a pair you enjoy wearing and look forward to reaching for again.

One comfortable day becomes an everyday habit. The aim is to make socks people will want to wear next season, and the season after that.

Wearing socks with sandals is an easy way to give a familiar summer shoe an autumn feeling.
