I went to see Coco Avant Chanel the other day and was suddenly totally inspired to sew again... (such an easily led girl!). There was a part in the movie where she exclaims over a 'new' fabric and you can see her mind ticking over the possibilities... fabulous, versatile, soft jersey. I have my own love affair with jersey and it reminded me of the sumptuous fashions of Lauren Kovin. She does wonderful things with this beautiful fabric and is particularly skilled in draping. If you'd like to see her entire collection, visit her website here.
I haven't seen the movie yet! These are divine, I'll check her out myself. Jersey is also forgiving..
ReplyDeleteGorgeous dresses
ReplyDeleteLove the first dress especially.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, is the movie good? I may have to check out the mums and bubs session as I'm not sure hubby will go. Audrey Tatou might twist his arm though!

thanks for the tip! I must see that movie.
ReplyDeleteArgh!!! I had planned to see this on Sunday but the dreaded flu changed all that. I hope it's as fabulous as it sounds...
ReplyDeleteWill have to check out this link; I've never really tried sewing with stretch knits before. A whole other world apparently...
