Iris Van Herpen's show at the Lace Museum Calais

I recently visited the Lace Museum in Calais and was luck enough to catch Iris Van Herpen's exhibition. The garments were amazing using interesting mix of materials, demonstrated true skill and craft!

Procion printing with devore!

I have gone back to my first textile love of procion dye printing and devore! I really love the colour vibrancy from the procions and the etched surface achieve by the devore process.... the two technique together are PERFECT!!

I love procion printing!

The technique of procion printing is so vibrant on Satin silk! 
You just can not match it with digital printing. The colours are so rich and bright.
