NINJA DRESS embodies the three human desires that ninjas were once forbidden to indulge in.
It reveals a state beyond desire—a place where discipline overcomes impulse.
Desire is quietly restrained. This design reflects discipline, not indulgence. This is the silent power of NINJA TOKYO.
The base structure of the dress features an overlapping form inspired by the traditional kimono.
By using this wrapped construction, we subtly incorporate a sense of Japanese identity into the silhouette.
One of the desires represented in this dress is the desire for alcohol.
We expressed this by adding ribbon details, designed to evoke the gentle overflow of sake.
Because ninjas once used nine ritual disciplines to restrain desire, we designed nine ribbon elements into the piece.
Each ribbon is symbolic—not excessive.
This dress is made with our originally developed fabric, a blend of rayon, cotton, and silk.
To highlight the three-dimensional depth of black, we added decorative elements using the same fabric.
This allows the shadows and layers of black to emerge naturally through movement.
Rayon 52%
Cotton 38%
Silk 10%

Crafted in Kiryu, Japan — A Textile Legacy of Over 1,300 Years
NINJA TOKYO begins with materials.
Our fabrics are designed from scratch using traditional Japanese washi yarn, then woven in Kiryu, Gunma—a city renowned for over a thousand years of textile craftsmanship.
Kiryu is unique in the world.
It is one of the few places where traditional materials, inherited weaving techniques, and the historical culture of the ninja coexist.
Here, skilled artisans transform each fabric into a finished piece with extraordinary precision—where every thread and stitch matters.
Designer MASUMI reimagined these materials to create garments that are timeless, versatile, and quietly powerful—inspired by the agility, strength, and discipline of the ninja.
The result is a new category of contemporary tailoring: the modern NINJA DRESS.
