'black out to red: story no. 6' mixed fabrics silk top
From the "Weightless Wonders" collection, featuring totally reworked antique and vintage scarves and graphic silk panels, this blouse is part of the little 'adventure' in black and red with black with mixed fabrics incorporating vintage scarves. This 'story' is a roomy design, oversized, that works well for all sizes, featuring a stand-up deep collar made out of long staple cotton, and a pocket. It is lightweight, semi-sheer (shown with a black camisole underneath), with wide raglan sleeves and a good length to work with all outfits. The graphic patterns are different yet fit organically together with all the added distressing, recoloring and mixed shapes. A warmer red, with some yellow and orange mixed in, it is striking and unique. Perfect for travel and for any occasion, from casual to dressy. The scarf in back maintains the signature of one of the original scarves, by Adrienne Vittadini - the artist made an effort to keep the original scarf names where possible. Product code: G7632

Very brief cold water hand wash, a few drops of mild detergent, always separately, spin in washer and dry on medium, or air dry and finish in dryer to soften. Also can be dry cleaned by mild methods, or dry cleaned in dryer at home with a store-bought kit. Do not use stain removers, spot treaters or bleach pens. Contact us for any advice, if needed.
All garments arrive to you freshly cleaned, unlike regular store-bought items, and are ready to wear.
Dry-cleaning is ok on most items but only if gentle methods are used and the cleaners are familiar with cleaning hand-painted delicate fabrics.
To freshen up any item that doesn’t need deep cleaning simply mist it with a water spray and put in the dryer on medium heat for about 15 min.
All garments can be hand washed. Wash each item separately, cold water only, minimal amount of detergent, and as briefly as possible, no soaking. The wash can be followed by a spin in the washer and dried on medium heat until dry. Knits should be hung-dried and when dry, finished in the dryer for a few minutes to soften.
Hand-pressing may be necessary after the wash and dry to straighten out the seams and edges which tend to pucker or curl on natural fabrics.
Some hand-dyed items may leak a bit of color during the washing, that is normal and will not affect the item. Using liquid softener during the wash will minimize any color leaking.
For more tips and details please refer to the cleaning instructions card included with your package.
