The
illustrator spent three weeks of her summer in Bournemouth
where
summer found its heat and where sunbeams found their playground
on
the perpetual waves caressing the bleached white sand
The
coastal town formed a pictorial textile image
there, the illustrator caught a glimpse for her fashion muse
She
has discovered the beauty of fashion and its movements of decoration
She
is fascinated
by
how some simple garments could be moulded into thousands of dressing
ideas
by
the explicit work of embroidery enlightens a soulless piece of fabric
by
the movements of textiles
slight
and slender
as
the summer breeze
breathing
through the salty feel of the sea.
Since a picture is worth a thousand words,
she hence presents you this album of her mini journey
A summer weaved by 'textile' memories...
Collected real-life sketches from Bournemouth,
Bath Fashion museum and V&A Costume gallery
Hope you don't mind her first machine embroidery
Final piece of model
She is thankful for the sun and her friends in Bournemouth,
who have made her summer worth recollecting.
