Pattern Project

Launching this week as a sew it yourself kit, is the exclusive Striped Top, provided with a careful selection of deadstock fabrics.

We worked closely with the PE team to choose natural based fabrics with varying subtle texture differences that satisfy the visual and tactile senses. The fabrics work in combination to give a unique look.

All fabrics chosen were sourced from luxury second-hand suppliers, based in the UK and Europe, that allowed access to high-quality materials whilst fulfilling the aim of repurposing deadstock fabrics. The top will be available in black or white and composed to three different materials, which will vary for each kit.

Here is a little introduction to some of fabrics which will be available -

Shiny Triple Silk Organza (White) - A light-weight sheer fabric with a crisp handle, lustrous and a very distinctive feel.

Natural Canvas (White) -One of our own deadstocks from the studio, is this organic linen and cotton. It has slight a denser quality and softens over time after a few washes. It’s non-chemically treated natural fibres enhance the fabrics unique character as minor natural colour variations can reveal themselves. This fabric is a local one, supplied from no further than Lancashire. It’s a sturdy fabric, making it easy to sew, though not so forgiving to too many mistake due to linen weft’s tendency to fray easily.

Popeline De Coton Vintage (White) - A smooth and lightweight cotton, with a little transparency. Yet, it’s tightly woven plain weave gives it a durability. As you may have guessed by the name, the fabric was sourced from France, making not too a long travel journey into our studio. It’s flat surface and sturdiness makes it a super easy fabric to sew.
