High-Quality Machine Sequins in New York

There is an undeniable vibrancy whenever you walk the busy streets of the Big Apple. Every turn and glance you take gives you a window into endless worlds of cultural identity, blended styles, and incredible fashion choices that transform the broken sidewalks of New York City into a model’s catwalk containing intriguing pieces that would delight even the most refined fashion palette.

Take a short journey down to the Garment District, you won’t make it more than three blocks without being disrupted by a shimmering sequins garment. If you’re looking for machine sequins in New York customized to your specific ensemble, NYES will provide your desired look and fit to your liking.

The Quality of Experience

New York Embroidery Studio, NYES, is a full-design studio and manufacturing facility with more capabilities than any other factory of its kind in NYC. We are a high-in-demand manufacturer that works to accommodate any designer who either wants to try something brand new or continue on with their signature looks. Now, you’re probably thinking, “Sequins?…how cheesy.” Like this photo exhibited below, Fendi, 2018, stunning.

And now you’re probably thinking, “But that’s from 2018…”

Yes, you’re right.

But actually, sequins have been around for years and are continuing to flourish in the fashion industry just as of yesterday, January 6th, 2022, according to Vogue. As pictured below, Hoyeon Jung strutting in a floral, sequenced Prabal Gurung blazer.

In the image, a model can be seen walking down a runway. She is wearing a blazer-style jacket paired with a long dress that features the same pattern and color palette as the previously mentioned piece.

Whether it’s doused in sequins or strategically placed throughout the garment, with the right lighting, the subtle addition will catch anyone’s eye whether you’re walking in the street, grabbing a bite to eat with a new… date?, working in the office or attending your next party.

Are Sequins Here to Stay?

The thing is about sequins, it has never truly left the fashion industry. They have grown with us through the revolving doors of fashion. Just from Fendi’s fashion week show in 2018, we have witnessed many fashion trends progress throughout previous years. From Y2K, flares of the 70’s, fast-fashion streetwear, Nike Low Dunks, and leather blazers, sequins have been through it all.

Where to get started

We’re all guilty of hanging onto old clothing articles that we think we just might get one more use out of or think it could come in handy for a… costume? Truth is, you’ll probably never wear it again and you’ll end up donating it or throwing it away. If you were to go into your closet right now, you could probably pull at least one or two, maybe even three, items that you’ve had for months or… years? I know I could.

The bottom line is, these items need some TLC and a quick pick-me-up. That’s why NYES loves working with upcycled projects and revamping old clothes because at the end of the day, they’re still usable and most likely wearable.

Grab your old clothes and take a visit to the studio to create your own timeless sequins piece!
