A Cruvoir, Los Angeles SS2016 World Exclusive Item. This super limited edition WSWJ02 handmade jacket design was created as part of the designer’s “Forests & Trees” special message Paris collection about deforestation and the importance of trees in the world today as the best solution to stop and reverse global warming now. It is the only piece of its kind made by hand in the entire world this season exclusively for Cruvoir in Los Angeles, using a single-breasted 6-button notch-lapel fully lined jacket pattern from extensive tailoring pattern and research, and cut in a luxury cotton and wool special weave fabric woven exclusively for Geoffrey B. Small by the master weaver Luigi Parisotto and family in Sarcedo, Italy, combined with an exquisite lining story of Italian striped viscose linings woven from Tessitura Mauri in Como along with authentic Bemberg cupro sleeve linings for super softness and comfort, then individually hand-dyed in Cavarzere with a special process which took about 8 hours for each piece to achieve its unique patina and effects. The design also features remarkable real horn buttons made exclusively for us by the legendary Fontana family of buttonmakers in Parma, Italy, and our signature hand-stitched buttonholes (each one requires 8-10 minutes to cut and sew) in luxurious pure silk Bozzolo Milano Seta Reale thread, and is handsigned and numbered by the designer. Variations in color and color density are not imperfections or irregularities, but specific characteristics of this special hand-dyeing technique. Please treat fabric and lining with care. We recommend professional clean or extra-gentle cold-water hand-wash and protecting buttons with foil or plastic wrap when washing. Do not put in washer or dryer, or wash with other items.
