JAPANESE BORO DIPPED IN INDIGO DYE VAT:
THE JACKET
It took 7 dippings to get it to the nice deep indigo blue I was after (click on image for a closer view). Indigo doesn’t dye into the fabric like most dyes, it attaches itself to the fiber. When I submerged the jacket, I had the breast pocket sewn on. I removed the pocket after the dyeing process and that gave me the ghost pocket silhouette.
