祖母の着物が紡ぐ物語

From Granny’s Wardrobe to Lasting Traditions

Each accessory in this collection is lovingly upcycled from kimonos passed down from my grandmother, featuring authentic, one-of-a-kind patterns and designs. By transforming these cherished pieces, we preserve their artistry and legacy, allowing them to be enjoyed as stylish accessories today!

  • Reimagining Kimonos

    The Vintage Collection is crafted from kimonos passed down from my grandmother. While these cherished pieces are no longer wearable in their original form, we honour our heritage by upcycling them into truly unique accessories.

    Because these vintage pieces are one-of-a-kind, each item is available in limited quantities. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of timeless luxury!

  • How We Upcycle Vintage Kimonos

    1. Remove Odors: Air out the fabric for 1-2 weeks to eliminate any lingering smells.
    2. Disassemble the Kimonos: Gently take apart the kimonos, removing seams and separating the fabric.
    3. Clean the Fabric: Carefully clean the fabric by hand with warm water.
  • How to Care for Your Vintage Accessories

    • Store in a cool, dry place.
    • Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
    • Spot clean gently with a damp cloth if needed.
    • Store flat to maintain shape.
  • Please Note:

    Our vintage items may show signs of age, including stains, discoloration, fraying, or fading. The fabric is very delicate, so please handle with care.

Vol.0 The Story Behind Our Vintage Collection

At L&L Paws, our Vintage Collection is more than just a line of products; it’s a journey through time. Today, I want to share the inspiration behind this collection—my great-great-grandmother, a skilled kimono maker.

L&L Paws Founder

Hana with Luke & Leia

I was born in the UK and received my education in several countries before returning to Japan for university. During my time as a student, I founded L&L PAWS Japan to blend Japanese cultural elements with pet fashion, creating stylish accessories for cats and dogs.

At L&L PAWS, our goal is to bring traditional Japanese craftsmanship into everyday pet accessories. In 2024, we launched a special vintage collection that breathes new life into family heirlooms, including kimonos passed down from my grandmother. Through L&L PAWS, we aim to not only create pet accessories but also to carry forward generations of Japanese culture and tradition through unique designs.
