Upcycled Vesper jacket #1 - size S|M

One of a kind – handmade by me in Copenhagen. There is only one. Upcycling has been part of my work ever since I started WEIZ Copenhagen 25 years ago. I love the idea of giving old materials a new life and turning them into something even more beautiful than before. This jacket began its life as a vintage silk scarf that had been sitting unused at the bottom of my wardrobe for years. My first idea was actually to make a vest. But then I got a new idea. So after many hours of cutting, quilting and hand-sewn gold stitching, the scarf was transformed into this short jacket. I made it myself in my workshop in Copenhagen. And there is only one. How it is:: Hand-quilted with decorative gold stitching, lightly structured and reversible Short silhouette with a wide tie belt at the waist Contrasting orange and purple fabric on the reverse, finished with lilac binding This jacket is a size S|M Loose, slightly boxy fit. True to size. Wear it like this: For everyday wear over a simple T-shirt, shirt or knit. Or layered over your favourite dress on cool summer evenings. Or simply as a little piece of wearable art when you feel like making an ordinary day a little more special. It is the same jacket – simply styled differently. Materials & care: Handmade by me in my Copenhagen workshop. The front is made from a pre-loved silk scarf. The reverse and details have been carefully selected from my archive of surplus textiles. A mix of silk, cotton, viscose and other textiles. There is only one of this jacket – that is part of the magic.
