Mira Mikati's Jumbo Stitch Embroidered T-Shirt is a vibrant statement piece that stays true to the designer's playful and imaginative aesthetic. Drawing inspiration from childhood imagery, art and DIY crafting, Mira Mikati is known for pieces that marry unexpected and [whimsical detailing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marc-jacobs-charm-collection) with vivid colors and prints.

This Jumbo Stitch Embroidered T-Shirt is no exception, highlighting oversized stitched detailing in a variety of vibrant hues. They include pieces of chiffon applique in green, pink, blue, red and yellow tones that create a linear pattern. The result is a [patchwork-inspired affect](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patchwork-americana) that accents an otherwise [classic white t-shirt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-tee).

In addition to its DIY feel, this designer t-shirt is also a modern take on a classic plaid top and takes embroidered applique to new heights.
