Footnotes

C'est à la suite d'un voyage en Turquie et inspirée d'une collection Suzani, qu'Isabelle de Borchgrave créa ce manteau.
Les tissus Suzani étaient riches en couleurs et en détails techniques. Les motifs Suzani étaient cousus à la main pour créer des broderies embellies et soigneusement réalisées. Isabelle de Borchgrave s'est emparé des codes de ces tissus et, par sa maitrise du détail et de la couleur, a réalisé ce manteau exposé à maintes reprises depuis 2004.

Isabelle de Borchgrave ontwierp deze jas naar aanleiding van een reis naar Turkije en geïnspireerd door de collectie van Suzani.
Suzani-stoffen waren kleurrijk en zaten vol technische details. Suzani-patronen werden met de hand genaaid om versierde en zorgvuldig vervaardigde borduursels te creëren. Isabelle de Borchgrave heeft zich de codes van deze stoffen eigen gemaakt en met haar beheersing van detail en kleur deze jas ontworpen, die sinds 2004 al vele malen is tentoongesteld.

It was after a trip to Turkey and inspired by a Suzani collection that Isabelle de Borchgrave created this coat.
Suzani fabrics were rich in color and technical details. Suzani patterns were hand-stitched to create intricate and carefully crafted embroidery. Isabelle de Borchgrave embraced the codes of these fabrics, and through her mastery of detail and color, she created this coat, which has been exhibited repeatedly since 2004.
