Plover Cove Botanic Dye Shirt Level 2 - Sophora Forest
The Plover Cove Botanic Dye Shirt is a true testament to the boundless creativity and fearless expression of the Chinese immigrant workers from the early 20th century. Drawing inspiration from their iconic worker shirts, this garment effortlessly captures the essence of their indomitable spirit. Meticulously crafted with an impeccable eye for detail, it features faded hues, fabrics reminiscent of wear and tear, and intricate laced button styles that echo the very essence of their bygone era.
In our dyeing process, we harness the captivating power of Sophora Japonica, a revered herb in traditional Chinese medicine renowned for its stress resistance and antioxidant properties. With a rich legacy spanning the ages, Sophora Japonica has adorned fabrics with luminous yellow hues and fragrant shades, casting an irresistible spell of sublime allure. To achieve the sophora forest colour, the garment is first immersed in a rested indigo solution, eagerly absorbing its dye. Once it reaches full oxidation, a thorough rinse is applied. The garments are then treated to the infusion of Sophora Japonica dye. As the dye completes its transformative journey, a lush forest-like green hue emerges, infusing the garments with a natural vintage look.
