The vest is the iconic piece of our house (L'EGOÏSTE).
Thus, our designer had the idea of making a unique creation for you; a vest made on the basis of emblematic vintage clothing found all over the world. Here we have worked with shibori fabrics.
Our One to One project will breathe new life into these historic garments. And it is our designer who will take care of making each of the vests himself.
It's our way of doing up-cycling. At a time of overconsumption and the mass-produced textile industry, we have chosen to recycle clothes that carry history to offer you a totally unique piece.
Shibori is an ancestral and complex dyeing technique from Japan. On this fabric appear several geometric shapes that are made using various folding processes such as knots, seams.
The goal is to tint the fabric with natural indigo, leaving certain areas with little or no tint (thanks to the folding of the fabric) to thus form patterns.
We sourced these fabrics from the African desert where the indigo dyeing technique is exactly the same as that used in Japan. Thanks to these fabrics, we have made a shibori patchwork by hand and in a traditional way in our own workshop in Lisbon.
Patchwork consists of assembling together several fabrics from different fabrics to form a single canvas.
The important thing is to combine pieces of fabric in order to find a balance and an aesthetic result. It's a real work of art.
This model has a crossover cut, with two rows of buttons. The lining will be different on each vest, but each piece will have a reversible martingale that will allow you to tighten the vest at your convenience.
There are also two integrated pockets (for each side of the vest) at the pocket of the vest, these are Japanese madras fabrics with a bandana pattern.
Acquiring this unique piece means choosing to trust the designer and let him create an original cardigan for you.
These pieces will not be exactly as you see them in the photos, each will have a unique fabric, wash, color and lining.
As soon as you place your order, we will tell you about the progress of the project in real time thanks to several photos that will be sent to you.
It is important for us to share with you the realization of this vest because it begins a new story and it is thanks to you.
