Embroidered Crop Waistcoat - Reversible

£125.00

Description

Made with achadiya and organic kala cotton, in natural cream or indigo blue. This reversible crop waistcoat, cut in a boxy, cropped shape, features a wide, front panel that flows organically around the neckline.

A red running stitch traces the collar and armholes, highlighting the shape and quilting these fabrics together. On the Achadiya side, red embroidery picks out a pattern, while on the kala cotton side, these same stitches reappear like a shadow or distorted reflection, a quiet echo of the design beneath. A subtle nod to the traditional Ajrakh motifs, that surface through the layered marks of the achadiya.

Due to the nature of hand-dyed and repurposed fabrics, subtle variations in colour, tone and pattern are expected and celebrated. Each piece is thoughtfully constructed by a small team in Cornwall, embracing the beauty in imperfections and visible mending. Designed to be worn, lived in, and cherished over time.

Size, fit, and details:

  • One size (M): Fits UK sizes 8-12.

  • Crop boxy fit, high collar.

  • Hand embroidered details in red thread.

  • Fully reversible.

  • Our lovely model Merry is 5”6 and size 10.

For this first collection we’ve made the garments in one size to avoid over production. (S/M) UK size 8-12. We will be making more sizes going forward, but feel free to get in touch with your size request and we’ll keep this in mind for the next small batch production.

Care Details

  • Wash separately for the first wash, as natural indigo dye may release some colour.

  • Machine wash at 30ºC on a gentle cycle.

  • 100% cotton

  • We offer a visible mending service to repair and extend the life of your garments over time. Please get in touch for more details and costs.
