Upcycled Camo Jacket with Embroidered Portrait Patch

Upcycled Camo Jacket with Embroidered Portrait Patch – One of a Kind This one-of-a-kind camouflage jacket is a wearable story of transformation. Upcycled with intention and edge, it features a large embroidered patch on the back: a hauntingly beautiful sketch of a woman seen from behind, her hair loosely braided and her posture quietly powerful. The image is printed on fabric and brought to life with expressive stitching, all done on a home sewing machine—an intimate act of artistry. Details: • Vintage camo shell in earthy greens, browns, and grays • Lightweight with a drawstring hem, lined and collared neckline • Large rectangular back patch: printed portrait of a woman with a braided bun, embroidered in sketch-like black thread • Patch framed with off-white braided trim in a diamond pattern, secured with zigzag and diagonal stitches • Subtle distressing and visible threadwork celebrate imperfection and process • Unisex fit; ideal for layering or making a statement Measurements (laid flat): • Pit to pit: 19.5" • Length (shoulder to hem): 25" • Sleeve length: 25" Made with Purpose: Crafted in Queens, NY, this jacket is part of my ongoing exploration of upcycled fashion as storytelling—where discarded materials become vessels for memory, emotion, and voice. Each stitch is a refusal to waste, a celebration of what remains, and a tribute to quiet strength. Handmade in Queens, N
