Modern Yukatas

Japanese fast fashion giant Uniqlo reinvents the traditional Japanese summer kimono for women and girls.

As it is made of 100 per cent cotton, the comfort and lightness of a traditional yukata are retained, but given a modern update with cheerful prints inspired by the works of artists Yumeji Takehisa and Junichi Nakahara.

Prices range from $69.90 to $79.90.

The collection will be available exclusively at the Uniqlo stores at Ion Orchard and Changi Airport as well as from www.uniqlo.com/sg, starting tomorrow.
