'the sun-day blues' highly detailed bold hand-painted jacket
This one-of-a-kind creation is a thoughtfully composed piece of wearable art, blending fine natural fabrics into a rich, tactile collage. The design balances bold splashes of sun-yellow hand-painting against deep cerulean washes, creating a striking visual rhythm. Its artisanal character shines through in the intricate layers of raw-edged appliqué, delicate hand-stitching, and subtle embroidery that traverse the surface. With its deconstructed hem and mismatched buttons, the jacket possesses a soulful, hand-worked quality that feels both spontaneous and precisely crafted. Lots of different accents, twists and turns for you to discover throughout, like a pocket in the back, detailing on the shoulder, a hint at one of the artist's favorite phrases - 'have to have some music in your life' - hand-written on the bottom and much more! Dress it up or down, in any event you will shine in this truly wearable art piece. There is currently no closure, it can be put in upon request at no extra charge - please ask as it can be done in several different ways. Product code: Q3301

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.
