METAMORPHOSIS DRESS

This new dress is special to me. I loved making the printings on its back and inner bottom. It was the first time I used the linocut technique and for sure not the last. In order to give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, I would like to thank the talented Lisa Gachet from Make my lemonade because she had made a similar dress a while ago. Even if I drew my own babydoll dress pattern, I was inspired by her stunning blue version with white lips.

This time I also made a short video – also a first attempt – to show the dress in motion. You can hear “Cover me” (Dillinja Mix) by Björk.

Here is the carved linoleum and the butterfly figure I used to print by hand the dress.
