Butterfly Japanese Style Pajamas 'Botanchou'
Butterfly Japanese Style Pajamas with Peony Print Wrap Top and Bordeaux Trim
Botanchou is the inverse of Chouka — botan for the peony, chou for the butterfly, the same compound rearranged, the flower taking the lead this time. The set runs in a pale dusty pink double-gauze ground, with peonies and butterflies drawn in soft mauve and grey lines. Where Chouka kept the air cool, Botanchou warms it: bordeaux trim at the V-collar instead of slate blue, deeper rose tones in the print. The composition still leaves more space than ink, the way old Japanese painters trained themselves to do.
The cut follows a wrap silhouette: a V-collar top with a bordeaux placket and self-tie at the side, three-quarter sleeves, a clean back. The trousers are straight-cut with an elastic waist, falling to the ankle, carrying the same peony-and-butterfly print across the fabric. Double-gauze cotton softens with every wash and gains its full hand after a few cycles. Sizes run M, L and XL; the cut is loose enough to layer, fitted enough to wear out of the house.
You get the wrap top and matching printed trousers, packaged plainly. Double gauze is the fabric Japanese mothers cut into baby blankets and summer towels — designed to absorb, breathe, soften. No costume packaging, no plastic accessory clutter, no fake silk gloss. Just two pieces of textile made for skin and slow days.
Wear it as nightwear, as loungewear, as a quiet outfit for a long Sunday at home. The top works alone over jeans, the trousers alone with a tank. It pairs with bare feet, with leather slippers, with low boots when the air turns cooler. There are two Japans in every wardrobe; this one leans toward the warm-tone side — Kyoto in autumn, momiji light, a tea bowl in both hands. Free standard delivery.
