Description
Crafted from hundred percent natural linen, the Painting Apron is designed to combine timeless elegance with everyday function. The rich texture of the linen gives the garment both durability and softness, allowing it to age beautifully.
The solid mother-of-pearl buttons and the embroidered kitsch butterfly bring a refined character to the piece. Feminine yet practical, the apron is made to move effortlessly between studio work and daily life — protecting your clothes while remaining elegant enough to wear as part of your outfit.
The apron consists of two separate pieces, with a detachable bib that can be buttoned on or off as desired. The spacious pocket is also removable, offering flexibility. Both parts are adjusted with ties at the waist for a personal and comfortable fit.
One size fits approximately small to large. Handcrafted with care and enduring quality in mind.
NOTE: Production time is approximately 1–4 weeks.
Model: Emanuelle Capatos
About the designer
Eline Dragesund is the Nerdrum family's personal tailor and the founder of The Kitsch Collection.
Her primary inspiration for clothing is the subculture of Odd Nerdrum's painting school, as well as Ancient Greece. She despises modern body-shape solutions like zippers and polyester, and prefers classical solutions such as linen, draped around the body.
In recent years, she has worked mostly with men.
"With every man that I've worked with, he comes to me and says: 'I cannot find what I am looking for. Can you help me?'"
As a result of the lack of varied design, she sees the need for "an alternative, elegant clothing style for men."
The guidelines for Dragesund's brand are the same as those for kitsch painters: good handcraft, a toned down palette and a timeless mark.
We just want people to dress more beautifully. That is why 90% of the profits from sales of clothes at Nerdrum.com go directly to the tailor Eline Dragesund.
