Size guide — Asian sizing runs small
Black at the shoulders, fading to white at the hem, where a Great Wave rolls around the edge and a koi rises across the panels. This kimono cardigan is built for summer, from the beach to a festival to the city, and its dark upper half makes it the easiest of our wave cardigans to style.
The design
The wave is a nod to Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa, the famous woodblock print from the 1830s. The koi brings its own story: in Japanese legend, a koi that swims up a waterfall becomes a dragon, so it stands for perseverance. The black fade gives both a moody, dusk-like backdrop.
