Lightweight Layers
Summer Edit
Breathable hand-embroidered layers for warmer days and softer evenings — lightweight cotton jackets and sleeveless vests, each finished by hand to be worn for years.
How to wear the summer edit
Cut for warmth — long days in full sun, gallery queues, evenings when the temperature drops the moment the light goes — each layer pairs breathable cotton with the polish of hand embroidery. Wear it open over linen by day, or over a slip dress when dinner runs late. Our guide to summer styling for a European trip shows how one light layer carries a fortnight of outfits, while styling one jacket through the seasons takes the same ease from spring into autumn.
Choose breathable cotton for the hottest days and a sleeveless vest when sleeves get in the way — each piece softens beautifully with wear. To explore by fabric, see the cotton jackets, vests, browse the full atelier, or read the story of kantha embroidery behind the handwork.
