Vollebak Draws Inspiration from an Ancient Japanese Stitching Technique
Sashiko is an ancient Japanese embroidery technique used to decorate or to functionally reinforce cloth and clothing. The method was developed in the Japanese Edo era. Contemporary brand Vollebak embraces this technique in a new collection of garments. One of the centerpieces of this range is the Sashiko Jacket which is a stylish and intricate piece.
Sashiko provides an interesting "invisible" method for mending clothes by highlighting rips, tears, and frays in the garment in a style-minded way. Through this silhouette, thus, the brand offers "an elegant example of a sustainable approach to clothing design and use"—a popular approach for contemporary businesses who want to encourage planet-friendly mindsets. Vollebak debuts its own take on the ancient Japanese embroidery technique, incorporating a "V" into the stitching pattern.
