Isetan Shinjuku gives its kimono floor to a disability-employment sashiko and boro brand

Isetan Shinjuku is handing its seventh-floor kimono section over to TERAS, a sashiko and boro textile brand made at a Tochigi welfare-employment facility, for a nine-day exhibition — department-store floor space used for social-impact craft rather than a luxury exclusive.
