The Between Gatherings Apron Skirt / Top - Wrap stories No. 6 (OS)
A little backstory
The original textile was chosen for its quiet beauty: small embroidered flowers arranged in a subtle grid, framed by an intricate lace edge.
Rather than cutting the runner apart, we preserved its original shape and decorative borders, allowing the textile itself to define the silhouette. An internal waistband was carefully added, creating soft gathers that transform a flat household textile into a wearable piece.
The wrap construction allows it to be worn as a skirt, layered over trousers, or styled as a top. One side closes with antique black lace, while the other is finished with a black cord, creating two distinct expressions within the same piece.
About the Making
Each piece in the From linen collection takes between 6 to 12+ hours* to complete. (Not to mention the days spent thinking about how to give them a new lease of life!)
2–3 hours: washing, spot cleaning, dyeing, and mending
2.5–4 hours: cutting and placement to preserve original details
1.7–3.5 hours: sewing, finishing, and assembling
Every step is done slowly, with attention to the material and its story.
*Hand work and Hand sewing is involved at every stage of the production process.
Where and How It’s Made
Each piece is made either in our own studio or together with our trusted partner family atelier, just a short bike ride away, right here in Amsterdam. Nothing is outsourced. It’s just us, our hands, and a deep respect for the materials we work with.
A Note on Vintage Textiles
All textiles are pre-washed before we begin any transformation process. Because we work with pre-loved vintage fabrics, minor imperfections may be present — part of the story and character of each piece.
Please note: colors may vary slightly from what you see on screen due to natural lighting and different screens. We do our best to show the true feel of the garment. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Reworked vintage pieces are final sale.
