Kitsune Reverie Tee

紅蓮の夢 (guren no yume): "a dream of the crimson lotus."

Rain from a clear blue sky has its own name in Japanese: kitsune no yomeiri, the fox's wedding. In the countryside the same words went to strings of lantern light crossing a dark hillside where no road ran, a fox bride and her family on their way to the groom's house. The phrase never left the language, and grandparents still say it when sun and rain show up at the same time.

A red fox sleeps curled in its tails on the back, and on top of it sits a fox-eared woman in a red kimono holding a long, thin pipe. Gold-edged black flowers crowd in around the pair. The words in the small box are 紅蓮の夢 (guren no yume), "a dream of the crimson lotus," and her portrait marks the chest.

From the front it's a quiet white tee with one small portrait; from behind it's a whole scene. Give it to someone who loves a story with a twist, then let the other foxes show the same spirit in fire and smoke. Summer festivals and sudden showers are its natural weather.
