SAMPLE Embellished Slim fit T-shirt

This hand embellished slim fit T-shirt is a SAMPLE, produced last Summer to promote a T-shirt/sweatshirt launch. It is part of dakota rae dust’s PREVIOUSLY UNSEEN ONLINE shop update. One-off statement earrings, necklaces and sample colour ways that are usually only available at markets or other in-person events. Laboriously hand embellished slim fit T-shirt in BLACK, decorated with with secondhand fabric applique panels, an ornate, costume jewellery inspired print and 2d printed ‘jewels’.  

This SAMPLE Embellished slim fit T-shirt is a size SMALL

This garment is roughly a UK women’s size 8-10. This garment has a slim fit shape, a wide neckline and short, rolled sleeves. It has been produced in a facility powered by green renewable energy. Unlike my other garment options this T does not include any organic cotton.

Vintage and second hand fabric

The vintage and secondhand fabrics used in my designs are sourced from local charity shops, Brocantes in France and via kind donations from fellow makers, looking to recycle their unwanted textile offcuts. All fabrics are machine washed before being repurposed. Each hand embellished garment is decorated with secondhand or vintage fabric applique panels. These are cut out by hand and machine stitched into place. A large and ornate costume jewellery inspired vinyl print is pressed over the applique panels before being further adorned with 2d, vinyl printed, fabric ‘jewels’.

Caring for your Embellished slim fit T-shirt

All my Embellished garments are machine washable at 30 degrees.  In order to keep the textural pieces of your embellishment in good condition a gentle cycle is recommended. Shake out after washing and allow to dry naturally on a clothes rack or washing line. Please DO NOT tumble dry or iron directly over the print. Turn inside out and iron on a cool setting.
