Painted
Long Coat
A long black coat carrying a vertical painterly composition, paired with a restrained grey-black base layer and cropped wide trousers. The contrast between the dark silhouette and the concentrated colour gives the artwork room to remain the focal point.
The garment
Standalone coat study
Long black coat with a high neckline, broad three-quarter sleeves and a concentrated painted/printed vertical panel. Light linear marks on the sleeves and pockets echo the drawing language without filling the entire garment.
Development
01 · ARTWORK
Confirm the exact original artwork and retain its line, negative space and colour relationships.
02 · PLACEMENT
Keep the main image vertical and concentrated rather than turning the coat into an all-over print.
03 · MATERIAL
Test a black fabric with enough body for the long silhouette while preserving movement.
04 · SAMPLE
Resolve print/paint technique, scale, sleeve details, pocket treatment and final fit on a physical prototype.
