New Trench

March 22, 2015

You know how much I love the classic Japanese designs, yes?
If I find a traditional old kimono that’s ready to be repurposed, I’ll take it apart and rearrange the pieces to make something new.

I lay them out until I see the designs fitting together in new ways.

There was the original way, which was one way, and now there’s a new way.
It’s magic!

    For this one, the first word that came out of my thoughts was WOW!! The second word is STUNNING!! I love the way you’ve reassembled that delicious fabric and made it into a classic trench. It’s one of your great ones Ann.
