The Art of Slow Style: Handcrafted Kimonos from Bali

In a world that celebrates speed, SALT / a collective invites you to slow down — to savor craftsmanship, texture, and the story behind what you wear.

Our handcrafted kimonos from Bali are more than garments. They are expressions of mindful living, designed for the woman who values quality, culture, and connection. Each piece is made in collaboration with local Balinese artisans who honor their craft and the natural world around them.

✨ The Beauty of Artisan-Made

Every kimono in our collection is a testament to human touch — not mass production. Handcrafted in small batches, each one carries subtle variations that make it truly one-of-a-kind.

At SALT / a collective, we believe luxury begins with integrity.

  • Sustainably Sourced Materials: Breathable, natural fabrics like soft cotton and rayon, often dyed with eco-friendly pigments.

  • Traditional Techniques: Hand-printed, hand-sewn, and finished with intention.

  • Ethical Partnerships: We collaborate directly with artisan families in Bali, ensuring fair wages and long-term sustainability for their craft.

When you wear a Bali kimono from SALT / a collective, you wear a story — woven with time, tradition, and care.

🌺 Inspired by Island Living

Our Bali kimono collection draws inspiration from the serenity of the island — the rustle of palm leaves, the warmth of golden light, and the ease of coastal living.

Designed for both travel and home, these pieces transition effortlessly from sunrise coffee rituals to sunset aperitifs. Whether you’re lounging poolside, exploring a resort, or layering it over jeans in the city, the SALT kimono is an invitation to slow down and move with grace.

🧵 A Commitment to Conscious Craft

SALT / a collective stands for more than beautiful design — it stands for ethical connection.
We believe that fashion can be a force for good, creating ripples of impact across communities and ecosystems.

Our approach:

  • Small-Batch Production: Made in limited runs to minimize waste and protect artisanal integrity.

  • Eco-Friendly Packaging: Each order is wrapped with care in compostable or recycled materials.

  • Purposeful Collaboration: We build direct relationships with artisans, ensuring transparency and shared growth.

By choosing a handmade kimono from Bali, you become part of a movement that values people over profit and purpose over pace.

🌴 How to Style the SALT Kimono

The SALT kimono is designed to be timeless — a piece you’ll reach for season after season.

Try styling it:

  • Over a simple linen dress and woven slides for effortless resortwear.

  • As a lightweight robe at home — perfect for morning rituals and slow Sundays.

  • With denim and gold jewelry for a modern, bohemian edge.

Each piece embodies laid-back luxury — a reflection of the SALT woman: confident, grounded, and free-spirited.
