Indigenous Patterned Women's Scrub Top - by Saretta Fielding
In collaboration with local Indigenous artist Saretta Fielding, we've crafted this bespoke, vibrant and striking range of patterned tops - perfect for NAIDOC week or everyday use.
The stunning artwork was created by Saretta and is reflective in style to many traditional sand engravings found throughout Wonnarua country and the Hunter Region. They are connected to country in style and design through the use of a sand based medium and engraving technique. They were then transformed into the beautiful scrub tops. You can truly see the detail that's gone into creating the artwork
