Hair being one of the central plotlines of the Basra Tapestry, the Creepers of Venus Tank taps into a physical meditation of the concept, paying homage to one of humanity's oldest and most evocative symbols of identity and expression.
Embroidered with enwrapping vines inspired by the hair of Venus and the clamshell in the Birth of Venus by Botticelli, the Creepers of Venus is an uncomplicated take on the Basra Tapestries board. Drawing from Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus, the tank’s intricate embroidered motifs capture the flowing waves and cascading hair of Venus, embodying the symbolic femininity that is placed in hair.
We love to style this tank casually, but also atop a traditional lehenga, for a more eclectic look.
