From the 13th of March my latest costume experiment will be on display at Biddal Sawyer Silks’s shop in Soho, London.
I have been given the great opportunity to create a window display being sponsored with 10 meters of the finest Biddal Sawyer silk fabrics. Spoilt for fabric choice I started the process in December last year, inspired by their beautiful array of colors I decided to create a costume, uplifting and breathing as spring approaches.
And this is how it all begun:
First sketches
She arrived and we started to spend a lot of time together
State of the art. Wanting to create a costume that is ‘breathing’ in keeping with the spring theme I started to experiment with bathroom extractor fans.
Ducting tube and gaffer tape…
First mock up of corset with integrated backpack and airpocket
