Upcycled
UPCYCLED BOOK JACKET
“THE SECRET HISTORY”
“It is is better to know one book intimately than a hundred superficially.”
― Donna Tartt, The Secret History
This one of a kind upcycled vintage Hochschild-Kohn wool coat, with its original mink collar and lux silk lining, is appliquéd with all the custom patches from the "TSH" collection as well as specially made chenille patches denoting the novel's fictional alma mater and the year of publication. The coat is finished with a selection of vintage and upcycled pins (the Persephone pin is a twin to one on Tavi Gevinson's Book Jacket- made from a pair of antique cuff links) and a medallion handmade from a rare brooch.
