Tribal Textures

Abstract

Inspiration for this design came from the textile used to create it, a Nigerian batik printed on damask. Limiting trim and embellishment to that found in traditional African adornment presented an additional design challenge. The resulting beaded fringed kimono jacket presented a contemporary western usage for the traditional fabric and trim
