Say hello to Carmen, the epitome of cosy yet stylish classic wear, and she's got a remarkable tale to tell.
Carmen draws inspiration from the fearless influencer, Carmen Serdán, whose revolutionary spirit is woven into history. This edgy jumper is truly one of a kind.
Carmen Serdán, a woman of unshakable courage and determination, played a pivotal role in the Mexican Revolution. Her family's resilience during a 1910 attack on their residence marked a turning point. Carmen's contributions, including her involvement in influential publications, were instrumental in the lead-up to the Mexican Revolution.
Now, Carmen's indomitable legacy lives on in this stunning jumper. It's meticulously crafted from exquisite deadstock and vintage wool, creating a unique texture clash in classic, elegant black. As the signature piece of the 'Noche Mexicana' collection, it features intricate embroidery handstitched onto delicate lace frill. The softest cotton ribbing on the oversized cuffs and neck adds a touch of boldness to the already captivating design.
This jumper exudes the same power and elegance as Carmen herself, offering timeless comfort with its full lining, ensuring no itchiness. And don't miss the cool detail – my signature random stitches at the front that accentuate the colorful back!
Wherever you go, let this jumper leave a lasting impression, with the embroidery at the back doing all the talking. Carmen isn't just a jumper; she's a symbol of strength, timeless and effortless style.
Don't miss out on this extraordinary piece that's sure to turn heads and spark conversations. Place your order today and wear a piece of history with pride. Each Carmen jumper is made to order, a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. Let your style speak volumes!
Please note that every Dolores Velvet Top is a masterpiece. Each embroidery patch has been crafted by a family with three generations of artisans in Zinacatan Chiapas. This means each embroidery piece is a one-of-a-kind creation, displaying its distinctive and asymmetrical beauty. Therefore, every jumper is unique, and it will be slightly different to the one showcased in the photos.
Keep in mind that due to their meticulous craftsmanship, the waiting time for your order is between 6 to 8 weeks. Don't miss out!
