What kind of detail is the embroidery on the hidden placket that conceals the buttons?

It is a detail finished so that appliqué embroidery is added to the inside of the front placket concealing the buttons, subtly revealing itself when unbuttoned or adjusted.

The outside covers the buttons for a neat and smooth look, while raised embroidery decoration is concealed on the inner placket. A hidden placket is a closure method that adds a double layer of fabric so buttons are not visible from the exterior when fastened. ARTS&SCIENCE placed appliqué embroidery—sewing an overlapping piece of fabric over the base fabric—on the hidden button placket of this long-sleeve shirt. Fastening the buttons maintains a neat exterior, but opening the collar or unbuttoning reveals the three-dimensional texture of the stitching on the inside of the placket.

It is woven loosely from fine wool yarn, making it thick yet light and soft. Delicately gathered pleats at the small collar, back, and sleeve ends create a roomy width. It is good for wearing alone in chilly seasons or throwing on comfortably like an outer layer worn over other pieces.

  1. Light and soft wool fabric

    Fine wool yarn is loosely twisted and woven at low density. Bringing out the yarn's inherent softness, it feels light against the body.

  2. Roomy fit with added gathers

    Gathers are set along with the small collar, back yoke, and cuffs at the sleeve ends. Plenty of room is created in the body, allowing comfortable movement.

  3. Thick volume brought out by processing

    Through milling processing and nidom finishing, a thick volume and warm texture are added. Thanks to the low weaving density, it is light compared to its bulk.

What are the "fulling" and "hard finish" mentioned in the fabric description for?

They are finishing processes intended to densely interlock the fabric's structure and firmly set the surface, reducing wrinkles and helping the coat retain its shape for a long time.

Fulling is a process that applies moisture and pressure to wool fibers to shrink the woven structure and cause it to interlock densely. By narrowing the gaps between threads and increasing density, it serves to compact the fabric surface into a smooth and uniform state.
