A semi-sheer mock neck top, with a multicoloured abstract print by abstract expressionist painter James Watkins. Pokhara is cut from incredibly soft Tencel Luxe lightweight chiffon, adding a luxurious sheen to the top's artwork.
The top's high neck and covered sleeves elegantly frame the face, allowing the artwork to accentuate, not compete, with the wearer's features. It's non-stretch with a back zip, offering a streamlined look.
Pokhara's artwork, originally a mixed media on canvas painting, creates a flattering sweeping line that is mirrored across the bust and back of the top. Its colours remind of the Shangri-la city of Pokhara, Nepal, where jungle greens and lake blues await a weary traveller after descending from the Himalayas' passes. The addition of peach and brown tones add an extra sheer element, making parts of the top look as if they are blending with the skin.
Pokhara was designed to be worn with our Mustang Organic Straight Leg Jeans, pairing with both the Mint Tea and Chilli colourways.
Made in England.
Sustainability
Pokhara's fabric is a new innovation on the London market - custom printed Lenzing Tencel Luxe lightweight chiffon. Tencel is made of cellulosic fibre derived from sustainable wood sources. Lenzing is a leader in sustainable cellulosic fabric development - all of their fibres are harvested from their sustainably managed forests, with FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) certifications.
Pokhara is manufactured at a small-batch production studio in South London. The studio specializes in high-end production, working with many emerging designers and brands in the city. Each piece is made by hand in-studio by their talented seamstresses and cutters.
It takes over three hours to cut and sew just one top.
