5 Instagrams offering one-of-a-kind embroidered pieces
If you are a fan of the slow fashion movement, one-of-a-kind embroidered pieces with an artisanal feel are always trending. Garments with hand-stitched embroidery are unique and topping our summer wish list. So, check out these 5 fabulous Instagram accounts and get inspired by the delicate stitching. Perhaps embroidery is an activity you could think about doing instead of scrolling Instagram or TikTok. Isn’t that a good idea?
Cressida Jamieson
We love British embroiderer, designer, and dilettante gardener, Cressida Jamieson’s posts on Instagram and her delicate one-of-a-kind embroidered pieces. Cressida has already gained a strong fanbase of 19.4k followers. For example, she stitches little flowers, birds and delicate letters onto t-shirts, shirts and cardigans. Meanwhile, her embroidery has become a hit with British actresses Claire Foy, Kate Winslet and the Stranger Things star, Millie Bobby Brown. Additionally, her pieces are also a success among fashion-savvy women on Instagram like Leandra Medine Cohen. So much so that Jamieson’s already collaborated with brands like Raey and Rixo.
Vita Kin
The Ukrainian label is all about folkloric and distinctive embroidered pieces with a chic and luxurious vibe. Above all, the dreamy garments are made using heritage artisanal techniques and traditional prints from Ukraine and around the world. We love the timeless Vyshyvanka dress worn by Mathilde Favier, head of PR of Maison Dior.
Yeah Right NYC
The 100% sustainable organic cotton T-shirts started as unique embroidered pieces on Instagram. After that, the garments with fun slogans like “SMALL BOOBIES!” and “NICE BUTT” quickly found big success on social media. The first embroiderer was the mother of one of the founders of Yeah Right NYC. Soon, the nice Milanese lady had to recruit friends to help stitch the slogans. Since they don’t speak English, the reaction of the Italian stitchers is often hilarious when they find out the meaning behind the embroidered pieces!
Tessa Perlow
Tessa Perlow grew up in New Jersey with a love for sewing and design. Consequently, she began repurposing garments with stunning embroideries. So, on Instagram, she presents her one-of-a-kind embroidered pieces that are often embellished with tiny beads and pearls. If you are like me, obsessed with this pair of gloves, Perlow sells her sustainable garments here on Etsy.
Rebecca Page
The Birmingham-based Rebecca Page hand-stitches cute hoops to decorate your house that make the perfect presents. To clarify, she explains that the embroidered items aim to empower and inspire self-love and confidence. Certainly, the personalised, positive quotes come decorated with sweet tiny flowers and hearts. Still, I especially like the humorous “Don’t be a dick” embroidered piece I saw on her Instagram. You can find her shop, Sitch Ambition, here.
