Joshua Williams: Hello, Sass! And welcome back. Who are we featuring this month?
Sass Brown: We're talking about Kur Collection.
Joshua Williams: Based in New York city. Can you tell us a little bit about them?
Sass Brown: Sure. The founder is based in New York, but the production is done out of Sri Lanka. And they're a young contemporary women's wear, mostly dress collection, dresses and separates. Really pretty. That incorporates handmade Portuguese lace or Dutch handmade lace, but from Sri Lanka. It's called Biralu lace there. And it's really beautiful.
Joshua Williams: It's very interesting because as you said, they're producing out of Sri Lanka, but they're also using Portuguese techniques. How did this sort of interesting combination come about?
Sass Brown: Well, traditional material culture is often just like culture itself, a response to immigration, to colonialism, all of those things. So Portuguese handmade lace was adopted in Sri Lanka through Portuguese colonialism and then Dutch colonialism, both of which countries ladies of leisure, used to do handmade lace in their own time. And so that was transmitted to the local population and taken up by them. And now it's part of their culture and part of their history.
