Comfy Pajamas Double as Outdoor Summer Kimono
Bibi Lab, the Japanese company behind the sailor suit schoolgirl wearable blankets is back again with a new garment this summer, and this time they’re adding an unconventional twist to a more traditional item of clothing.
Never one to follow mainstream trends, Bibi Lab is now combining Japanese summer kimono, or yukata, with the relaxed, comfortable fit of a cozy pair of pajamas.
Called the “Raku Yukata,“ which translates to “Easy Yukata,“ the garment’s official English name is Comfy Kimono Pajamas, and it’s designed to be simple to put on and a breeze to wear.
