MAO JACKET – Hand dyed natural indigo
MAO JACKET. HAND DYED NATURAL INDIGO. 100% COTTON.
This Mao jacket takes inspiration from the classic Chinese tunic suit, known as ZhongShan Zhuang. This style was very typical of the Mao era. The solid indigo exterior, offsets the patterned lining and under collar detail.
Hand-made, plant-dyed natural calico cotton with floral pattern created through an ancient method that uses hand cut patterns with a resist soy bean and lime paste technique. Because of these natural processes, and ethical practices this product is a sustainable fashion item.
Available in sizes small, medium and large, this classic Mao jacket looks fantastic styled with denim and a classic shirt or a simple white t-shirt to set off the LYHB lining.
Care
Because the deep rich blue of this artisanal hand dyed indigo cotton ages with wear, the jacket becomes characteristically personal with usage. After the first three washes any excess indigo dye should wash out, therefore minimising the possibility of rubbing off.Andres Ferrer de Armas Collaboration

Consequently Andres has a deep understanding of Eastern and Western cultures. BLUEHANDED therefore invited him to design a capsule menswear collection, using Lan Yin Hua Bu fabric.
