New Super Mario kimono sets are perfect for the summer season
If you are a fan of bothtraditional Japanese clothingand Super Mario Bros., these apparel are perfect for you.
Japanese brand Kimono by Nadeshiko, in partnership with department store Parco, has released a new line ofyukata(summerkimono) inspired byNintendo’siconic video game series.
There are four different Super Mariokimonorobes to choose from, and the blue one stands out from the rest. It is based on Super Mario World 1-1 which shows off clear blue skies, fluffy white clouds, golden coins, tall green pipes, and sturdy brick blocks.
The sleeves showcase a beautiful dark-to-light-blue gradient. If you look closely, you can even spot Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi jumping around the stage.
Fall in love with the sleek night-mode version of thisyukata. It has almost the same design as the blue Super Mario kimono with added Mario letter logos ‘M’ near the chest area for a classier, more regal vibe.
If you’re all in for a monochromatic style, the Super Mario kimono in red will suit you. It has a playful pattern that shows Mario, Princess Peach, Bloopers, and other elements and characters taken from the video game.
Meanwhile, the tealyukatafrom afar looks like a normal checkered robe, but upon closer inspection, you’ll see that the squares are made of Mario blocks.
Of course, these sets would not be complete without a matchingobi(kimono sash). Kimono by Nadeshiko has created a reversibleobiwhich shows the same monochromatic red print on one side, and a colorful pattern filled with shrooms and blocks on the other.
