'ripples and bumps' highly detailed mixed fabrics jacket

This jacket is a showcase of the various techniques the artist is known for - from embroidery and hand-texturing to combining different fabrics and hand-painting, just to name a few. It is equally great dressed down or worn as part of an elegant ensemble. The dark shades of brown, navy and indigo have a lot of depth achieved through hand-dyeing, hand-painting and distressing. Lots of different fabrics have been used in the construction, including thinner silk for the sleeves to hand-woven, hand-textured silk, hand-embroidered crisp gambiered silk, super soft brushed cotton, denim, eyelet cotton, high-tech brocade and more. A true art-to-wear piece you will enjoy for many years to come. Product code: U3072

Hand wash cold, dryer OK.

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.
