Then she was awoke that creating is to fuse natural material by traditional and new technological methods. For example, She uses organic material in addition to used or vintage clothing as her main fabrics to design cutting edge clothing that is fashionable and environmentally friendly.
Her process of production includes designing, patterning and sewing. All of which is done solely by Yuha herself. No two creations are alike. All of her work is uniquely designed and created for the given client or project.
ORIGAMI DRESS is not cut materials, just it fold and hand stitch on materials to make dress,which style like ORIGAMI of japanese culture.

fujiyama-ori The subtle threads, dyed in the spring water of Mount Fuji, are carefully woven together by the craftsman to elaborate the "fujiyama-ori". It is this water’s great purity which gives its magnificent color to the fabric. The fine threads, firmly attached, offer both great robustness and allow to create meticulous patterns. The Miyashita’s revive in our modern world the technique for making this fabric, carrying two thousand years of history from the foot of Mount Fuji. Participating in the fashion week in Paris, we dress, from around the world, young brides, many theater groups as well as movie protagonists.
Miyashita Textile Co., Ltd., which headquarters are in the forest at the foot of Mount Fuji, is a growing textile manufacturing company in the city of Fujiyoshida, heir to the so particular craft and know-how of the orimono, which has been developed while imbued with a privileged natural environment.
Our fabrics have as main quality thread fineness, high density and jacquard weaving. The combination of many pre-dyed yarns provides a rich color progression. In Japan as well as abroad, many wedding dresses use beautiful draped, particular satin of elegant shine, taffeta, chambray fabric.
Today, working for the evolution of the quality of the fabric using pre-dyed yarn, fineness of the yarn, high density of the fabric and jacquard weaving, we offer a wide variety of original fabrics. We also have for future concern to manufacture fabrics intended not only for formal but also more casual outfits. Original jacquard, samples and small lots are available.
