The Paka Mweusi - Peripheral Edge
THE PAKA MWEUSI — PERIPHERAL EDGE
A vivid, narrative-driven Fold built from a cat-and-floral patterned cotton front, where silhouetted forms move through layered botanical motifs in warm reds, greens, and soft neutrals. The composition carries a sense of motion and folklore, grounded by a smooth stretch cotton-poly reverse for comfort and structure. This Peripheral Edge variant introduces a mint green border that reframes the artwork with a lighter visual perimeter, while the framed metal logo is repositioned along the folded neckline, shifting the visual anchor from the point to the side of the neck and creating a distinct balance when worn.

Care
Spot clean only with a lightly damp cloth.
Do not machine wash or dry clean.
Avoid saturating the folded neckline, as layered construction may retain moisture.
Allow to air dry fully before storage.
Some fabrics may temporarily darken when damp; allow to dry completely before assessing.
Additional Notes
You may wish to remove the clear protective film that is applied to the framed metal logo prior to shipping.
When applying leather balm or cleaning the framed metal logo, use the included protective cover to prevent transfer to fabric.
Each Fold is individually constructed. Minor variations in alignment, fabric tension, or texture are inherent to the process and are considered part of the piece’s character.
