LITTLE DEMONS IN HELL Silk Aloha Shirt
Japanese name/ 地獄の鬼 (Jigoku no Oni)
-About-
This pattern was originally used during the Showa era (1926-1989), for the lining of a men’s coat or “haori“ which was worn over the kimono.
”Little Demons In Hell”, playfully depicts the everyday way of life of the lord “oni“ with his little demons. One might wonder why this pattern would have only been used for the inner lining…perhaps it was meant to make an impression or impact when removing the coat, a “surprise“ lining being exposed.
Often was such the case in the past in Japan, when playing games with geisha, or maiko san in the lively entertainment districts. This fun-loving pattern would have surely been the center of attention at a party, winning the delight and admiration of everyone.
