Description
DeepL TranslateTransform 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
