Eco printed slow fashion 慢活天然印染時裝

 

More is more, less is less.....

Usually I like "less is more" but this eco printed outfit is made with fabulous prints from my newly fond lemmon marigolds.  Can't help to do experiments with different placement of that plant.

一向簡約的鋪排，此時來一個豐富的色彩，一襲以芬芳萬壽菊為主的外衣是日前多片實驗布料拼成的設計。

 

Have done lots of the panel prints and needs to make use of them.  Some had been sewed into tote bags

This one with assorted plants (flowers, leaves, ferns) but mainly with the yellow lemmon marigolds I just sewed into the long outfit.

 

 From the video you will see my "slow fashion" of the outfits made with the leaves prints.  It was a fine weekday afternoon I went to Tai Mo Shan, our highest mountain for the shooting. I love the area as the plants were from the village down in the mountain. 

這日在大帽山上隨風走著遠眺山下，正是我愛在那村路騎行尋葉子的村舍。

 This outfit with organza sleeves for the "see-through" effect and the prints on wool blend front is solid.

 

 Sounds Mogi loves the golden yellow prints more.

 

The flowers are crown daisy

Red from madder dye

 

Sleeves and back are silk organza, front is silk georgette

 "Before & After" of the prints

Gray shade from tannin mordant

Pattern of the outfit I learnt from Revital Avidar.  The basic design is a pull over dress.  I modified it for the open front and ruffled collar of viscose dyed in cochinael.

A light outfit of different fabric and prints

I'm here among the undulating mountains.  I wanted to see further and do more experiments with natural prints.  Sky is the limit.
