Samara Top

The Samara Top is a quiet statement piece designed to celebrate individuality, craftsmanship, and conscious creation.

Created in our Transcend studio, each Samara Top is made-to-order using vintage kantha textiles hand-stitched decades ago and thoughtfully revived for modern wear. Guests begin the process by selecting a kantha fabric that speaks to them — no two are ever alike, making each top a true one-of-one.

The silhouette is intentionally refined and relaxed, with a softly structured shape that drapes effortlessly on the body. Clean lines, subtle sleeves, and a straight back create an elegant profile that feels timeless and versatile. Designed to move seamlessly from day to evening, the Samara Top pairs just as beautifully with tailored trousers as it does with denim or skirts.

Every piece is cut, sewn, and finished locally by skilled makers in our Seattle studio, extending the life of historic textiles while supporting a regenerative, circular fashion system.

The Experience
This piece is part of our bespoke tailoring experience. Guests select their own vintage kantha textile in person, after which the Samara Top is thoughtfully crafted to order. Minor fit adjustments can be accommodated to ensure comfort and longevity.

Because each Samara Top is made from limited, one-of-a-kind vintage fabric, variations in color, pattern, and texture are natural - and celebrated.

Why We Love It
The Samara Top embodies Transcend’s philosophy: honoring the past while designing for the present. It’s an heirloom-in-the-making - expressive, sustainable, and uniquely yours.
