Red dress project

I have just finished my red jersey dress for one of my classes. I would like to also add beading to the top. I think the dress is quite elegant. We got given the red fabric to work with I might have used a different color of fabric if I was allowed. The jersey was definitely a struggle to sew due to its stretch!

Eduardo Paolozzi and Romance was born

I really love the relationship between Eduardo Paolozzi  and this collection by Romance was born which is sponsored by marvel comic and also inspired by it.  Eduardo Paolozzi is a collector, sculptor and pop artist he loves the relationship between man and machine which I think relates closely to super heroes and comics.  This collection was described as "a walking work of art."
