Italian Boutique Teal Knit Tunic with Laser Cut Scalloped Hem

A tunic that dissolves at the hem into a constellation of cut circles, as if the fabric were slowly turning to lace. In a deep teal that shifts between sea and storm, it falls in a soft swing shape with laser cut scallops at the hem and cuffs, the kind of technical flourish that signals a real maker rather than a mass producer.

Bought from a boutique designer in Italy. Sold to me by the legendary Luxor of Paracelso (SoHo NYC). Renowned for the quality of her pieces, which she would source from back home. Small batch designed, she would bring them various fabrics from around the world and have designers use it to create something special.

Italy's small ateliers and boutique designers have long led the way in inventive knitwear, marrying soft natural fibers with experimental finishing like laser cutting and bonded edges. A piece bought directly from a boutique designer carries that lineage of considered, limited production craft.
