DESCRIPTION

A fully reversible, light silk jacket inspired by the construction of the traditional Japanese hanten, reinterpreted with a clean, contemporary silhouette. The body is built from multiple panelled sections, creating a subtle architectural structure and a considered line through the garment. One side is crafted from recycled silk sari, double-layered, densely hand-quilted with all-over kantha stitch, then overdyed in black to unify the varied textiles into a rich, tonal surface. The reverse is cut from lightweight mulberry silk, hand-dyed using the discharge technique, offering a contrasting expression of the cloth.
