'fall's soft touch' mixed fabrics fiber art jacket

If this jacket doesn't make you dream of fall, with all its richness of colors all around you, then we don't know what will! A true art piece, the jacket is made out of mixed natural fabrics including hand-distressed and dyed nubuck leather (which is like suede except it's not, it is very durable, super soft and drapey), hand-smocked silk, thick stretch silk crepe, unusual textured viscose blend, different cottons and more. Vibrant colors here and there allude to fall leaves, with their reds and yellows, without interfering with the overall dark and rich colors of brown. A beautiful piece with a wonderful drape and feel you will enjoy adding to your collection of handmade clothing from the artist! PLEASE NOTE: Shown with a matching scarf available separately. Product code: J9576

Can generally be washed but please ask for instructions; gentle dry clean is also an option.

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.
