Naturally Dyed Vivianne Vintage Battenburg Lace Cotton Jacket Size M/L #EOP3
$285.00
Introducing this one of a kind Vivianne Vintage Cotton Jacket – an elegantly crafted piece in collaboration with the natural dyers at East of Pine.
This exclusive jacket features extraordinary battenburg lace throughout including scalloped neckline and collar.
This jacket features the dyeing technique of onion skins.
Onion skin dyeing is gathered from Emily and Pollys' at East of Pines' homes or found in abundance in the form of scraps in grocery stores. Red and yellow onion skins create varying shades of greens and yellows.
The process includes scouring the fabric, followed by the addition of a tannin, and finally, it gets mordanted. This three-step pre-treatment ensures that the natural dye will hold onto the fabric and that we will achieve the most vibrant colours from the dyed materials. Once the fabric is treated, the onion skins are added in a process called eco-bundle dyeing, which involves scrunching and then steaming the fabric with the onion skins inside. Once the dyeing is complete, fabric is rinsed and hung to dry.
