Reconstructed Denim Dress-Coat

A landmark Neuthread piece, this one-of-one denim dress-coat represents hours of considered design, pattern cutting and skilled construction. Individual sections of donated denim have been selected, arranged and pieced together by hand, creating a rich patchwork of contrasting washes, original seams and distinctive details. The result is a sculptural statement garment that could never be reproduced in exactly the same way.

Designed to move beyond conventional sizing, an internal concealed drawstring allows the waist to be gathered, shaped or worn loose. This adaptable construction gives the wearer control over the silhouette and enables the piece to work across a wide range of body shapes and sizes.

Wear it fastened as a dramatic denim dress or style it open as an oversized patchwork coat. The structured collar, voluminous sleeves, generous pockets and full skirt give the piece a commanding presence from every angle.

This is one of the most intricate and valuable garments in the Neuthread collection. Its price reflects the exceptional amount of creative and technical work involved, from preparing and matching the individual denim sections to constructing its adaptable, full-length silhouette.

Made in Britain from donated textiles that may otherwise have gone unused. Every purchase supports Daisy Chain’s autism and neurodiversity services and helps create training and employment opportunities for neurodivergent and marginalised people.
