The Eye-Spot jacket was inspired by the complex bilateral symmetrical patterns found on moth wings. The jacket was made to specific measurements and constructed following production tailoring techniques. It is made of muted cool grey wool with symmetrical vibrant red and blue wool embellishments throughout which created a sense of life and personality in the coat. Each spot was carefully and intentionally planned to complement the others. This jacket is an entirely unique jacket made to create cohesion out of embellishment shapes and overall symmetry.
