Lotus in Bloom Shirt

A white half-sleeve cotton shirt carrying a lotus scene: the blooms are machine-appliqued patchwork, the lily pads around them painted by hand. It is a relaxed, button-down shirt built through JOD's upcycling process, light enough for warm days and distinct enough to wear as the main piece of an outfit.

FAQs

Where is the lotus placed?

Across the shirt as a scene, with appliqued blooms and painted pads rather than a single chest motif.

Can I bleach out a stain on the white cotton?

No. Bleach will damage the applique and painted areas. Treat marks with mild detergent and cold water instead.

Is the applique stitched or glued?

Stitched — the lotus patches are machine appliqued, so they hold through gentle washing.

How does it differ from the Blue White Flower shirt?

That one is navy with hand-stitched white flower applique and wooden buttons. This is white, with a lotus pond scene combining applique and hand painting.
