The Textile Chapter: Lawung
Every begins with a point of observation. For Lawung, it was the earliest bloom of the noni flower, where each petal became the starting point for a new textile language.
Developed as an evolution of the Maison’s Noni motif, Lawung transforms individual petals into a rhythmic composition that is both structured and fluid. Embroidered in the atelier and meticulously perforated by hand, each motif reveals delicate cutwork that brings depth, light, and dimension to the textile.
For SAPTO DJOJOKARTIKO, a pattern is never conceived as decoration alone. It becomes part of the textile itself, developed through drawing, embroidery, and refinement until material and silhouette evolve together. This process allows every interpretation of Lawung to remain connected to its origin while continuing to evolve with each collection.
More than a motif, Lawung reflects the Maison’s belief that heritage is carried forward through continuous reinterpretation. What begins in nature finds a new expression in textile recognizable in essence, yet never repeated in the same way.
Some details reveal themselves instantly. Others become more meaningful with time.
