Pillings

About Pillings

Pillings is a Tokyo label founded by Ryota Murakami in 2020, built around hand knitting. Pieces are meant to be worn until the knit starts to form little pillings. Murakami works constantly with skilled Japanese hand knitters, with the aim of honouring traditional craftsmanship, inspiring future generations of knitters and creating a supportive environment where they can flourish. Knitwear is the heart of it, and the range also runs to tailoring and shirts. The label was an LVMH Prize semi-finalist and is stocked at Dover Street Market London and Andreas Murkudis in Berlin.
