On a budget?... be sure to
shop JAPANALIA ON ONE! weekly for best buys on closeouts
& consignments every Tues thru Sat...& don't be an
"outlet sucker" (AOL's words)...lots of what you see in
outlets is "banged out" offshore for zilch to make you think
you're getting a bargain...ours is the real thing!
Under $100 appeals to you?
We're always making a special effort to create sporty/casual wear at
especially appealing prices!
Looking EXTRAORDINARY
is only half the Japanalia equation. Add hassle-free styles that
are COMFY...and that equals CONFIDENCE!
MADE IN HARTFORD, CT is our
other theme...in our 2000-sq. ft loft on Arbor Street Dan supervises Jose,
Elsa, Maria
and Lesley the talented stitchers handling
all those specialty fabrics with quality craftsmanship! We
design, drape, make patterns, cut, sew and applique right here!
KIMONO is the Japanese word for
"clothing" (Ki="wear", Mono="thing")
& do we ever have wonderful "things to wear" for you this
season:

"tux" and "hadagi" themes: tight or loose, bolero or
fingertip length...drapey microfibers, silks, cotton jerseys...structured
linens, raw silks, vinyl...reversible, or not...maybe even

m/l, xl.
Skirts!...fishtailed, slit, long, or short...made to order, even!
Tops!...tanks, tunics,
cropped with collars, short and wide, short and skinny, etc...many
silhouettes in every fabric imaginable...like:
Styles for every figure, age,
time of day...that's our specialty...we're keeping it simple,
but trying to bring you your favorites in more fabrics that can
bridge day to evening, business to pleasure, casual
and dressy!...
By the way, we make clothes "in
season" right up until that season changes into the next!
(though you may find some "out of season" items in our outlet
store, on one!, in Hartford)!
What are our Favorite Fabrics? Silks
of many nations, textures, colors...Cotton twills, crepes, Ikats
& Exotic Japanese weaves & prints...linen...microfibers...silk/cotton
blends, wools, velvets, silk georgette, poly
georgette, felted hand-made wools.........etc.! If the fabric speaks to
us, we listen and create!
Come to JAPANALIA for Styles Old
& New! Some revivals with new twists...& lots of new cuts...
We're famous for well constructed
"comfort clothes" in natural (or at least interesting)
fabrics, as well as sexy evening/dressy clothing... pima cottons, wools in
weights that go from winter thru summer, linens, etc... and
a few up-to-the moment synthetics....
Only women's wear? Men are
coming' round in droves! For: button shirts in washable silks,
reversible raincoats, pull-on pants, the non-tux TUX ...and gifts for all
their lovely lady or gentleman friends!
Slimmer Styles!...gasp!
Yes, while girls of a more "generous proportion" will always
still hold a special place in our heart, we've pared down a few
silhouettes, just to accommodate our sisters working hard to keep, create,
or recreate their...figures! "XS" is part of our
new creed: Next to every "one size fits all" is a "size
one"!
Pants?...Also extra baggy to
very slim...
