Middle Eastern Warrior




Middle Eastern Warrior

Bright Middle Eastern colours, Islamic tiles and graphic triangles reflect the garments inspiration. Hand machine knitted triangle’s filled with stripes of colour come together to form the main garment. Bold black and white designed tights knitted on an Industrial shima machine contrasts the colourful main dress. A headdress made of pom poms and knitted tubing, filled with large Styrofoam balls add character, while Shoulder tassels highlight the dominant warrior within.
