The technique

True creation, whether it be in art or fashion, requires genuine freedom of action. Traditional production and printing techniques trap the prints within the natural boundaries imposed by the seams and edges of the garments. To allow this level of freedom, Le Galeriste doesn’t print on garments per se. Instead, the threads are dyed using a sublimation technique applied to one product at a time for optimal colour balance. It’s an intricate and complicated process but it ensures that the artwork never fades, and that it doesn’t alter the feel of the fabric which has been custom-engineered for this specific production technique.
