WHAT WAS YOUR INSPIRATION FOR THE PATCHWORK COLLECTION?


The collection is rooted in two powerful design references: the purposeful construction of survival parachutes and the soulful artistry of the Gee’s Bend quilters. Known for their expressive, improvisational quilts, the women of Gee’s Bend inspired a bold use of colour, shape, and texture—reimagined here in a playful, modern context.

“We combined the geometric language of parachutes with the spontaneity and storytelling of traditional American quilting,” says Georgia Dant. “The result is something deeply personal—functional, artistic, and full of energy.”

Each piece reflects our ongoing commitment to upcycling, crafted from surplus materials and transformed into a vibrant patchwork of limited-edition bombers, parkas, and vests. The designs are as unique as the materials they’re made from, championing sustainability, individuality, and heritage craft in equal measure.

HOW IS THE PATCHWORK COLLECTION MADE?


The collection continues our commitment to upcycling remnant fabrics into small, limited-edition runs. Every garment is handcrafted in our small, family-run factory near Venice, Italy. The process is deliberately small-scale: two artisans oversee cutting, six manage sewing, and others handle pattern making, grading, and production.

With a dual focus on precision and craftsmanship, each piece undergoes two full rounds of quality checks to ensure an impeccable finish - proof that sustainability never comes at the expense of excellence.

HOW IS THE DESIGN OF MARFA STANCE PATCHWORK DIFFERENT?


REVERSIBILITY

Each piece offers two distinct looks in one - vibrant patchwork on one side, and a versatile neutral colourway on the reverse. It’s functional outerwear with a dual personality, designed for real life and constant reinvention.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Constructed from quilted nylon and wool, each garment is pieced together from carefully cut remnants - ensuring zero waste and maximum creativity. Gathered pockets and hems elevate both style and wearability, while handmade loops, buttonholes, and fully bound seams bring a refined, artisanal finish.

FUNCTIONALITY

Unlike traditional quilts, our garments feature a double-layer construction that allows for internal pockets and a warm, structured silhouette. Though more complex and time-intensive, this approach offers superior durability, comfort, and design integrity.
