I'm not sure what term is generally used in English for this term. Although I've found I few sites with "superimposed" or "superposé" embroidery, they are very few, so I'm sure there must be a better term. Any know/have any ideas? Conxtext:
"Raffinati ***ricami superposé*** si posano su georgette in seta con delicate e svolazzanti applicazioni in raso."
Thanks!

Thanks!

appliqué embroidery
Sounds like you don't embroider the actual cloth, which is too delicate, but you attach ready-embroidered trim (appliqués).

Comment: "Thank you so much for all your help Angela - you really saved me a headache! I have actually used almost exactly what you suggested: "Delicate flights of satin appliqué embroidery create a refined touch on the silk georgette.""
