Chores ᐧ 34 who am I?

34 who am I?

I know your every face under your every mask
yet will never run out of things to ask

Poem by Shaina Yang

34 who am I? carries with her a gentle sheen that gives away an eagerness — or perhaps yearning — for more, in her relatively new and unworn state. With a simple lining of a single fabric that feels vast in the steadiness of its crosshatched pattern, she wears all of her embroidery on her front, leaving the back of the coat crisp and clean. This duality extends to the embroidered name inside, which sits low against the wearer’s left hip — and upside down, marking it as a question for the wearer alone. The embroidery on the front shell meanwhile paints a series of explorations — some furtively peeking into pockets or collars — that in turn host its Nicki Cherry charm front and center, in an act of quiet bravery.
