Description
This vest is not designed around a single central motif. Its identity comes from reconstruction: vintage silk embroidered sections, geometric bands and metallic couching are reorganized into a contemporary asymmetric silhouette, with one side intentionally longer than the other. A sheer outer layer softens the surface visually while helping protect the older embroidery beneath. Gold and silver threads catch light differently across the dark ground, creating depth without the density of a fully packed ceremonial garment. It is best understood as a modern wearable composition made from traditional textile language.
Craft: Su embroidery with gold and silver couching, assembled through a contemporary asymmetric design.
Materials: Vintage silk satin with silk lining and a sheer protective overlay.
Fit / Size: One size. Recommended reference range: approx. 45–70 kg / 99–154 lb (90–140 jin). Fit varies by height, shoulder width and body shape.
Availability: One of a kind. Quantity: 1.
Care: Specialist professional cleaning is recommended. Do not machine wash, soak, wring or bleach. Store in a dry place away from prolonged sunlight. Steam lightly from the reverse if needed; never press an iron directly onto the embroidery. Keep metallic threads away from moisture, perfume and abrasion.
