2022  /  compostable one piece suit 

talent  /  henry holder + nicole rich

/ 006

$2,500.00

[ linen outer, cotton inner, antique assorted buttons, cotton thread and binding ].

a resurfaced piece from the archive, a study of pockets - a pocket continuum. twenty-two pockets to carry each body part. this suit in it’s entirety is one giant pocket for the body connected to a larger cloth, making it a one piece suit. traditional tailoring uses horse hair, wool, beeswax and silk thread in the construction of a suit. this suit has been designed to avoid non-plant based resources and decompose back into the earth once it has served it’s purpose.

the compostable one piece suit can be worn multiple ways; open or enclosed. the pant componant is adjustable from the tuxedo waistband. the sleeves can be detached from the armholes, the collar can be thrown to the back.

[ spot clean or dry clean ].
