Sunny in Rainy Season

POTPURRI Kiyosumi-Shirakawa store

This exhibition welcomed back two brands familiar to POTPURRI:
LINEN TALES and CREOLE.
Shirts and dresses made from fine Lithuanian linen,
handwoven bags in light, strong kudzu fiber—
we brought together pieces
to enjoy through the summer.

Sunny in Rainy Season

was the theme for an exhibition during the humid rainy season.
For those bright days that hint at summer and invite us outside,
the selection combined cool, pleasant linen with woven kudzu accessories.

Alongside quiet black, beige and navy,
vivid pink was a highlight of the collection.

Featured brands

LINEN TALES⠀

A home textile brand from Lithuania, a country with a rich linen-making tradition.
⠀
Linen is valued for its absorbency and ability to dry readily.
⠀
The stonewashed LINEN TALES fabrics feel light and soft, with an easy, familiar touch from the first use.

CREOLE

Captivated by the handcrafts of Laos, CREOLE's founder Yonezawa established the brand with the hope of helping these skills endure.
⠀
Even as mass-produced goods become familiar, the makers continue to spin and weave slowly, keeping traditional handwork alive.
⠀
With designs intended to appeal in Japan and beyond,
the pieces are made gradually, at the pace of the craftspeople in Laos.
