Description

Dieselstream Coat

Steampunkish coat made from old painters drop-sheet. Vintage British military buttons adorn the once immaculate coat that has now seen better days. The silk scarf, perfect for a distinguished pilot and gentleman.

Very little waste as almost all the sheet was used creating details and pockets. The frayed and tattered hem was the starting point of the whole project.

    Hi Urbandon, your designs are truly one offs. Were they made on an industrial machine?
