SHIBORI STUDIO Design Gallery 7 SHIBORI STUDIO GALLERY 7 SHIBORI FORMAL EVENING GOWN TRADITIONAL JAPANESE SHIBORI and KUSAKIZOME Shibori techniques: kanoko, boshi, awase nui, ori nui, mokume, others. Silk gown with kusakizome natural dyes. Title of Gown: WISTERIA SUNSET Fuji No Nichibotsu in Japanese Exclusive Original by Carol Gustavson Wisteria Sunset or Fuji No Nichibotsu is entirely silk and portrays a wide variety of complex, master level shibori techniques and natural dye colors and processes. The concept for this gown was to manipulate the shibori and natural dyes to give the effect similar to a watercolor painting. Any single error in any of the shibori or dyeing would result in the entire gown being rendered useless. The sheer quantity of yards and yards of silk make the success of this gown even more spectacular. Please use your back browser button to return to previous pages or Shibori Studio Index page.
