Bound Witness

BLE-002

Blue Sweater

An eye on the front, unblinking. A mouth on the back, mid-cry. Between them, metallic chains coil across the body, wrapping sleeves and chest, binding front to back. Each link drips as if molten, each connection a weight or a tether.

This piece began with fragments — sketches of an eye, sketches of a mouth. Alone, they spoke. Together, they became a dialogue. The chains completed the conversation, asking whether vision and voice trap us or empower us, whether being bound is a loss of freedom or a kind of protection.

Wear it as a question, not an answer.

Bleach-etched Process

Each piece starts with dark, high-quality fabric and a single medium — bleach. Layer by layer, the bleach is brushed, dabbed, or sprayed to lift pigment and build depth.

It isn’t printed or transferred; the artwork forms inside the fibers themselves. Once neutralised, the reaction stops exactly where it’s placed — permanent, washable, and impossible to repeat.

Over three to four days, the imagery takes shape: a chrome-like glow that shifts with the light, etched directly into the cloth. Every line intentional. Every piece one-of-one.

Sizing & Fit

Every Bleeche piece starts with the garment itself — chosen for how it carries the design.
Heavyweight cotton hoodies, soft-wash tees, or rare upcycled finds — each one is different.

Because every base is unique, sizing can vary slightly between pieces.
We measure each garment by hand and include a photo showing chest width, length, and sleeve with tape markings.

Match those measurements to a piece you already own and love — you’re not guessing a size, you’re choosing with certainty.
One size only: each design exists in this single garment.

Care Instructions

Your piece has already been neutralised, rinsed, and washed in-studio — it’s ready to wear when it arrives.

Washing: Cold water, gentle cycle, mild detergent. Wash inside out to protect the artwork.
Drying: Line dry out of direct sunlight or tumble dry on low.
Ironing: Low heat, inside out, with a pressing cloth.
Bleaching: Don’t. Each garment was created through bleach art — adding more will damage the design.

Bleeche garments are made to last and evolve. Fading, softening, or showing signs of life isn’t wear — it’s part of the piece’s story.
