Description

DeepL Translate

Transform fashion into needlework art of your own with this luxury embroidery kit, available exclusively to accompany the Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art exhibition.

Made by heritage embroidery house Hand & Lock, with hand-picked materials and a step-by-step guide grounded in 250 years of expertise, it's everything you’ll need for an eye-catching tribute to the shimmering gold faces and shining red lips of the celebrated original piece.

The now iconic design first embellished the back of a stunning evening coat created in collaboration between Elsa Schiaparelli and Jean Cocteau in 1937. Embroidered with ribbons onto a tailored coat, Cocteau's whimsical linear drawing of two mirrored, kissing faces forms the illusion of a vase of roses.

The kit includes:

• Metallic purl, beads and crystals

• Cotton thread, needles, beeswax

• A printed fabric base

• An easy-to-follow guide

Design adapted from Evening coat, 1937, Elsa Schiaparelli and Jean Cocteau
