Si:Su

Found this awesome recycle fashion label whilst doing the jolly thing of typing reclamed+fashion into Google....god bless the internet! Awesome awesome stuff :http://www.si-su.com/

Cant seem to get hold any of her pictures but definately worth a second look,love her stuff! Especially the Kimono top, might try
one of those...also REALLY like the fact that each garment bought is of different fabric and colour dependent on the recycled fabric
available...HORRAH! xxx

A neW BegInNinG?










So im thinking 2 1/2 months into my 2nd year at uni, that its not for me and is in fact a very expensive way of procastinating about life :-) Its taken a good few gut wrenching days to decide this but it feels pretty right right now, 2010 is showing signs of becoming a bit of a 'Tank Girl' year it seems...
So to blast into this year in a creative bexieeeee style I've finished a really pretty commition for a guy at work called Alistair who wanted a purple velvet-esque dress for his 10yr old neice. (left)
And im creating in a Winter Wonderland! Its so white outside, it snowed last night...
So creating lots of things- Also got a peacock outfit started for my 22nd (argh! only 1day left of being 21!) which is coming on nicely. Its a bodiced dress made out of green, blue and purple fabrics...instead of it just being appliqued with peacock embroidery or something Im really trying/aspiring to make it look like the feathers themselves are actually the structure of the dress itself...photos to come later. (i was making it until 2/3 last night :-D
INSPIRATION-
Did the grand thing of putting 'upcycled clothing' into google to see what would come up and straight away found a really cool scottish designer that is really funky. Check her stuff oooout!
