Image 1 of 21 / 2
Kansai's "bull's eye" cape is constructed from a full circle of fabric, much like the capes worn by samurai fire wardens. The design recalls a samurai archer's target, kasumi-mato, consisting of a series of concentric circles of varying width. The high-heeled clogs are modeled after traditional Japanese okobo, black lacquered platform geta with yellow straps.
