This set of blazers emerged from a personal research journey sparked by my dna test results, which revealed previously unknown family roots in manchester. During my visit, relatives gifted me these garments—pieces that are now nearly disappearing, as they date back more than a century. Crafted from sumptuous velvet and adorned with intricate embroidery and opulent buttons typical of its time.

Museum-worthy and profoundly rare, they are not intended for wear. Presented at nyfw ss, these blazers stand as archival lakras artworks, preserving a lineage, a history, and a legacy in textile form.

Care for this blazer as a living artifact—its heritage, craftsmanship, and historical significance make it a rare and irreplaceable treasure. Do not wash, this delicate piece is a curatorial item, not intended for everyday wear. Store in a cool, dry, dark environment to prevent fading or deterioration.
