Women's Cyan Pleated Hakama Skirt 'Shian'
Women's Cyan Pleated Hakama Skirt with Chiffon Overlay and Side Bow
Shian is the Japanese reading of cyan — that soft blue-grey somewhere between sky and sea fog, the colour old Japanese ink wash painters reached for when they wanted air rather than water. The skirt builds on the hakama silhouette and lifts it: knife pleats running from waist to hem, a sheer chiffon overlay that catches light and movement, a side bow tied at the waist as a quiet reference to the traditional koshi-ita and obi tie. The cyan keeps the whole composition cool and breathable — a piece for warm afternoons more than cold mornings.
The cut is high-waisted with a structured band, fastening with a side zip and finished with a self-tie bow. The pleats fall to just below mid-calf and the chiffon underlayer adds a second moving layer that floats slightly behind the body. The fabric is a polyester chiffon with a soft drape, smooth against the skin, easy to layer. Sizes run S, M, L and XL; the silhouette stays fitted at the waist, full at the hem, never bulky.
You get the skirt as a single piece. The colour holds its tone through regular wear and gentle hand-washing. No costume packaging, no plastic accessory clutter — just one garment, ready to be folded into your wardrobe alongside the rest of what you actually wear.
Wear it with a white linen tee and leather slides for summer, or with a cream blouse and small heels for a softer evening. It pairs as easily with bare ankles and espadrilles as it does with sheer tights and ballet flats when the weather turns. The cyan stays cool in any light — neither sky nor sea, but somewhere between, the kind of blue that suits open windows and slow afternoons better than a closed room.
