2026　Diving into the Earth

In 2026, eit swim dives into the Earth.
Not to consume nature, but to touch it, feel it, and move with it. Through the time-honored practice of natural dyeing, we explore this way of being—bringing it beyond design and into everyday life.

While past collections such as AIZOME(Indigo Dye) and Edo Komon acted as symbols of what we wanted to convey, this season’s focus on natural dyeing breaks those ideas down further, transforming them into something more approachable, tangible, and experiential.

Natural dyeing allows a direct experience of Japan’s seasons and beauty, and it’s something anyone can try at home. Vegetable scraps that would otherwise be discarded, fallen leaves or flowers picked up during a walk — colors can be drawn from the most familiar elements of nature. Clothes worn over time can be given new life, inks can be made for drawing or dyeing paper, becoming part of a lifestyle in harmony with nature.

Slip into swimwear imbued with this spirit, and dive deep into the heart of the natural world.
