"Vellum City" Jacket
From the pattern to the cut & sewn construction and unique handmade bondage jewelry chains, this jacket was a very time-consuming and meticulous project. Fabricated using a genuine lamb skin exterior and an interior lining using charmouse silk and spiderwebbed lace. The cut/shape of the jacket is asymetrical, and the hems were left unhemmed (raw edges), allowing the jacket to have an edgy appearance and a sharp/sleek fit on the body. The hardware also features 3 RiRi silver zippers, steel buttons, steel rivets, steel piercings all throughout, and custom handwoven tags. Overall, this jacket is one of my favourite pieces because of its modularity and unique features from the accesorization, tailoring and finishings all thoughout
"Reapers Mass" Moto pants
This specific piece is a testimony to my leather craftsmanship, highlighting technical and tedious sewing skills. Featuring a total of 19 different pieces of genuine animal skin, from cowhide to snakeskins, meticulously patchworked and sewn together. This versatile pair of pants has a straight leg cut but can be transformed into flares through the hidden inseam zipper flare beneath the 30" RiRi silver zippers. Along with the inseam zippers, these pants also feature sharp back pockets with logo embroidery and steel rivets and screenprinted graphic on the right-front panel.
" Reassurance" Patchwork Shirt
Showcasing my innovation through sustainable practices, this overshirt is constructed using applique with 25+ vintage shirt scraps that were recovered from unsellable garments. Each scrap was cut out, patchworked, boro stitched horizontally, then vertically, and then hand sashiko stitched over an upcycled bedsheet cotton/linen blend base fabric. This piece also features sleeve cuff embroidery on both sleeves and handdrawn barbwire details on the collar.
"30 hours of indression" denim jeans
Showcasing my technical stitching skills of darning, razor stitching, and artistic stitchwork. This wide-leg pair of pants presents a chatoic fusion of denim and various other cotton fabrics mended into the denim. Using 10 oz American bull denim as the base and black lace, bandana-printed cottons, and various thrifted scarves meticulously sewn and distressed multiple times over and over to give the illusion of mending.
