Polina Embroidered Shirt

This white shirt with pastel-colored embroidery is dedicated to the ethnographic region of the Black Sea and inspired by the works of the renowned artist Polina Rayko. Polina worked in the naïve style, painting the walls and ceilings of her house in Oleshky. We have taken the fanciful angels, birds, and fairy-tale ornaments directly from the ceilings and stylized them to bring the essence of her work to life on this shirt.
