This listing is for a vintage Japanese haori jacket. Learn more about this type of garment below.

With black and subtle pink tones, the exterior of this jacket is a woven, web-like pattern that feels almost like cracked glaze or interlacing threads. 

Inside, the piece reveals its real story: an unexpected lining featuring daruma faces in a more traditionally masculine palette. The outer woven design suggests connection, structure, and resilience, while the hidden daruma, long associated with perseverance, goal-setting, and good fortune, adds a layer of meaning that feels personal and symbolic.

This contrast between a restrained exterior and a narrative interior makes the jacket especially compelling, blending classic women’s styling with motifs more often reserved for men’s garments. It's reversible if you prefer the lining to show.

The outer is a woven blend, but the lining is silk. 

A woman's haori is a traditional Japanese jacket worn over a kimono, designed to provide both warmth and an added layer of formality. Today, these jackets transition effortlessly into modern fashion as a lightweight, open-front layer. They can be worn over dresses, denim, or simple basics to add texture, color, and a distinctive, artful touch.

Haori do not cross over or tie with a sash, like a kimono does - they are meant to be worn open to reveal a bit of what is worn beneath. An optional accessory is the haori himo - little woven ties that are hooked to the little fabric loops that you'll find at the mid-front of the haori - but they are sold separately. We'll select one that goes with this haori if you pick the Add A Himo Pair option above. To choose a pair of our fancier himo, CLICK HERE.
