Brocaded Wool Layer

A brocaded wool jacket made by hand in the Highlands of Chiapas, Mexico, from local wool, handspun and woven on a backstrap loom. The thick, densely woven textile has a soft feel and a compact structure, with alternating colours of black, ecru, brown, grey and dusty rose bringing depth to its brocaded surface.

Designed in one size, the mid-length silhouette follows an ancestral cut, constructed from two joined panels with straight, square-cut sleeves. Its simple lines allow the density, texture and colour of the cloth to define the garment.

Wear it on its own over a simple base layer, allowing the brocade to remain the focus, or combine it with other pieces to explore contrasting textures and proportions. Part of Layered Territories, it is an individual garment with room for new combinations as the wardrobe evolves.

Each piece is handmade. Subtle variations in texture, colour and dimensions are part of its individual character. Our textiles take time to make, following the rhythms of the materials and the people who work with them.
