Product Description:
This one-of-a-kind upcycled parachute cape redefines functional artwear through sculptural construction and conceptual embroidery. Crafted from lightweight parachute nylon, the garment features intricate panel stitching and raw-edged seams, combined with adjustable drawstrings and tassel cords along the hemline for modular styling.
The front showcases bold neon pink and navy blue embroidery — a fragmented globe motif surrounded by text that reads, “Heard about the guy who fell off a skyscraper?… So far so good… So far so good…” — exploring existential irony through a poetic lens. The piece merges deconstruction and utilitarian futurism, making it both a wearable statement and collectible art object.
