The origins of embroidery can be traced right back to ancient China, where they used to employ various different hand-sewing techniques to patch, mend, or decorate their clothing. Eventually, embroidery became a way of distinguishing between society and royalty – thanks to the creation of luxurious tapestries.*
The trend of embroidery didn’t stop there, it soon gathered pace and spread across the world and, as the practice became more commonplace, each culture would embroider patterns that were unique to them.*
We have been seeing a resurgence of embroidery this spring!
One of the brands we carry displays embroidery beautifully in each of their garments: Benares by Citrus. Benaras creative codes are based in its textile heritage.
