Kimono artisans and art of kimono creation is on the verge of a crisis because of reduction of kimono market, aging of artisans, and lack of their successors in Japan. For expanding kimono markets to the world, kimono artisans stand out from their workshops and plan to show their kimono outfits on stage at New York Fashion Week in February 2016, produced by a kimono fashion stylist, Hiromi Asai. This project is organized by two non-profit organizations, Kimono Hiro Inc. and Kimono Artisan Kyoto, in US and Japan, respectively. For this project, Kickstarter campaign is ongoing to raise crowdfunding over $50,000 for 50 days until July 31.
