The Artisanal Silk Collection begins in the humble solitude of a tranquil garden within thelandscape of The Artisans from San Pedro Cajonos in Oaxaca, Mexico. As the artisans watchover and nourish precious clusters of silkworm caterpillars, they sustain the life cycle of this cherished species, ready and waiting to carefully harvest each abandoned cocoon to creategorgeous silk fabrics.
Weeks later, the finished material becomes The Artisanal Silk Collection, uniquely crafted withlove, care, and expert skill as a gorgeous fashion statement for all seasons. Beautifullybreathable and amazingly versatile, this lightweight outer layer pairs perfectly with the LaPeony Clothing line (we especially love it as an accessory to our favorite Caroline Jumpsuit) oras a summertime swimsuit cover up.
