From the Summer 1987 catalogue: “From Asia to America, almost every region on earth has a way of coloring yarn in intervals, then weaving the “space-dyed” threads together to create a shimmering, feathered effect. In Jaoan, this craft is called kasuri; in Indonesia, ikat; Guatamala, jaspe, meaning speckled or variegated. We’ve modeled our versions after ancient Japanese designs and had them dyed and woven India, where\u2013in order to achieve a truly handcrafted look\u2013we encouraged the weavers to align the bands of color even less uniformly than usual. The resulting light-weight cotton shirt is a modern variation on an already variegated tradition.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
