Boro

Designer Magie Hollingworth

Boro is a Japanese textile which has been mended or patched together to reflect the beauty of natural wear and tear. Indigo dyes are commonly used - the western equivalent would be the patched jeans of the 1970s. Magie adds her own unique touches to this traditional Japanese art form.
