Ink on skin on mesh. The Tatu High Neck wears its meaning the way a body wears a tattoo — fully, without apology. Buddhist calligraphy covers every surface, sleeve to collar, the text reading:
Long before memory, the light already was. Not awakened, but always present. Namu — the soul returning to what it never left.
Turn around, and the back reveals a full dragon illustration by artist Naima — coiled, ancient, unhurried. Sacred text on one side, mythic form on the other. Together they make a garment that feels less worn than inhabited.
Cut from a stretchy nylon-spandex mesh that moves with the body, the sheer fabric makes the print feel immediate — close to the skin, close to the surface. Raw edges at the hem keep things from tipping into precious. Wear it alone as the statement it is, or layer beneath something open to let the text and image speak through.
