Kiss Of The Wolf

Kiss of the Wolf, whose name is a loose translation of Lori’s last name, Bacigalupi, was founded in 1974 in the kitchen of her rural home where her husband Marshall built a small loom and wove strips of fabric that Lori stitched onto clothing she designed.

Their love of culture and the many possibilities of color on fabric inspired their travels around the world. They studied batik in Indonesia, Shibori in Japan, weaving and natural dyeing in South America. But for Lori, nothing surpasses silk for brilliant color and opulent textures. Breathable and absorbent, her exquisitely hand-painted and hand-dyed fabrics are transformed into luminous clothing.
