Hawthorne & Heaney on Bespoke Patches

March 15, 2019 by Natasha Searls-Punter

Last month, we had the pleasure of working on a bespoke patches order which pushed the boundaries of what we usually produce as it was for a very fast turn around. With the order being for 900 piece and only a coupld of weeks to the deadline, we really had to hit the ground running with the project.

By the end, with them all lined up, we were very pleased with the results of these freestanding pieces so we thought we would share them with you.

Hawthorne & Heaney for Andrew Totah

Hawthorne & Heaney for Andrew Totah London Hand EmbroideryThis year we were lucky enough to work with a very promising CSM MA student called Andrew Totah. We produced a series of embroideries for him which feature in his final collection which are so vibrant and exciting, we couldn’t wait to share them with you.Hawthorne & Heaney for Andrew Totah London Hand Embroidery

Andrew Totah’s collection is based on his travels through South Africa and features a wonderfully vibrant colour palette which reflects the culture. Andrew’s collection is very much about telling a story through his designs so his girls are superheroes of a kind who modify their clothes and empower themselves by take back control of their city in the night.

We produced a series of heavily machine embroidered patches to compliment his collection, all of which were his own graphic designs. Most of the embroideries are raised from the surface of the fabric, that combined with the punchiness of the colours makes a strong impression.Hawthorne & Heaney for Andrew Totah London Hand Embroidery Hawthorne & Heaney for Andrew Totah London Hand Embroidery

To see more about the collection and the inspiration behind the designs, as well as the embroidery on the garments shown in the show at the end then have a watch of the video below.

Hawthorne & Heaney reviews London Collections: Men

Hawthorne & Heaney reviews London Collections: Men London Hand Embroidery

Looking at AW15 London Collections: Men it is clear that texture is a key theme for the season, being keenly explored through fur, wools, brocades and more. At Hawthorne & Heaney what has really caught our eye is the use of embroidery in menswear. It can sometimes be a hard balance to strike, with an area that is so closely associated with femininity but there were some well integrated pieces that go to show that embroidery for menswear can be just as beautiful.

Antonio Bizarro and James Long took more of an appliqué approach to their embroidery with Bizarro applying large areas of intricately patterned brocade to his jacket using a contrasting satin stitch edge. James Long provided a touch of androgyny to his collection using chunky guipure inspired lace motifs to offset the sportswear cuts.

There was also an abundance of pop details such as these embroidered badges which were seen at both Kit Neale and Topman.  This slots cleanly in with the customisation trend that has been dominating our catwalks and long may it continue.

Until next season…
