Cabinet Stories Silk Court

Silk Court Resident with Waistcoat. "I used to be a textiles designer. I designed the fabric for this waistcoat. It is a Matalassé technique. The padding is woven in with the design to make the raised pattern. It was made on a jacquard loom. I’m very interested in fashion. I worked for 25 years in a silk mill and then worked at the Macclesfield Silk Museum."
