Description
xOverview "Lichen Camo" is an experimental textile artwork that pushes the boundaries of traditional embroidery. It boldly juxtaposes two opposing textures: a soft, three-dimensional pile created with a special ribbon embroidery technique, and a hard, brilliant ground of crystal-like beading. This is a premier fabric born for touch and sight, full of avant-garde luxury, and available in eight colorways.
Design Inspiration Inspired by the contradictory beauty in nature—the soft, delicate moss (lichen) growing on a rough, sparkling geode. The designer aimed to create an "impossible fabric" that is both soft and hard, matte and shimmering, organic and luxurious.
Craft Details
3D Ribbon Embroidery: The core craft of this fabric. The colored sections are not made from traditional thread, but from a special ribbon/tape material that is embroidered using advanced techniques like ruching and tufting to form a soft, fluffy, raised pile with a delicate, velvety feel on the mesh base.
Crystal Beaded Ground: In stark contrast to the soft ribbon-work areas, the "negative space" is completely covered with a brilliant "ground" hand-stitched from crystals, seed beads, and sequins. This creates an incredibly luxurious, sparkling effect like sugar or crushed diamonds.
Rich Color Selection: We offer this unique design in a wide spectrum of palettes, from soft pastels to rich jewel tones.
Available Colors
Coral Pink: A warm and feminine palette of coral, pink, and white.
Light Coral: A paler, more delicate version, featuring light peach, blush, and white.
Olive Green: A mature, earthy palette of olive, khaki, and white.
Mint Green: A fresh, ethereal palette of mint green, light green, and white.
Lime Green: A vibrant, bright palette of lime, neon green, and white.
Lilac Purple: A dreamy, romantic palette of lilac, lavender, and white.
Dusty Blue: A serene and cool palette of dusty blue, hazy blue, and grey.
Burgundy: A rich, luxurious palette of burgundy, plum, and deep red.
Recommended Use Its one-of-a-kind texture and avant-garde artistic style make it the ultimate choice for a fashion week finale piece, a haute couture coat, or a highly collectible evening gown.
