I ended up enlisting them to make a shibori-dyed background fabric for the Saltpond print.” The cheerful motif features a charming mix of elements, including sea horses, coral and shells— all things that evoke warmer climes.100% Silk’s new designs aren’t the first time Dekel has worked with craftspeople internationally, but Spring 2020 presents the brand’s most abundant offering of garments to date.
With pieces ranging from a soothing white silk-cotton blend to those done in eye-catching patterns like ikat, the collection appeals to eccentrics and minimalists alike. Drape-y dresses, sculptural blouses and roomy trousers are imbued with a sense of luxury that comes from not only the fact that they’re thoughtfully made but also the way they seem to urge one to take pause and enjoy the act of getting dressed.
“I opened the shop as a way to showcase my line among a group of artisans and designers from around the world who share my ethos for idiosyncratic beauty and craftsmanship,” says Dekel. “And through the store, I’ve met countless people [who are] looking to invest in statement pieces that they can feel good about and have an emotional connection to.”
