"Swallowtail Papilio" Wrap-over Top

A unique wrap-over top - Handmade in Brussels

Would you like to wear a beautiful piece that values ​​craftsmanship and sustainability?

Let yourself be enveloped by this "mini kimono" wrap-over top , a unique and singular creation that brings together different carefully selected materials.

This model subtly combines two jerseys in orange tones framed by charming black vintage fabrics with printed patterns .

A meeting of materials and patterns:

My inspiration comes from the story each fabric carries within it, which influences my aesthetic choices and design techniques. I love combining textures and patterns to harmoniously recreate a new story that you can make unique when you wear it. Each of my creations is a textile composition specially designed to highlight your personality.

I carefully select fabrics that I consider to be true treasures, from Brussels and elsewhere, in search of unique materials . I find them during my walks and travels, I meet textile artisans with exceptional know-how. I devote a lot of time to hunting in the second-hand circuit to be able to source exclusive fabrics in limited quantities.

This is how I finally combined the luminous velvet jersey with a floral knit, which I framed with embroidered butterflies and flowers , a fine wool printed with Art Deco patterns, Liberty cotton and a 70s pop grid...

Each fabric composition is unique, like this wrap-over top where corduroy meets embroidered and printed patterns with contrasting graphics. This combination reveals all the richness and beauty of the materials that I have collected and transformed for you with great care.

Between flexibility and structure:

The velvet jersey gives this wrap top a comfortable, flowing drape, while the expertly crafted edging adds structure and highlights the fabric's unique patterns. Roll up the sleeve cuffs to reveal the lining's vintage-printed motifs.

Versatility that adapts to your desires:

This wrap top can be worn in several ways, allowing you to create unique looks:

1. Crossed, tight under the chest and tied at the side above the waist.
2. Crossed in front tied in the back
3. As a waistcoat, the panels tied at the front, perfect to accompany a long dress.
