Hello readers......

Have just been investigating an idea inspired by a great website I've just discovered called inter-disciplinary.net, where there's loads of fashion related items and academic papers...don't be put off by the word 'academic'- it's full of fashion expert's writings which are fascinating. Here's the link to the fashion pages and a link to one of the contributor's review of the subjects presented at last year's conference.

My idea concerns archiving garments (which we commonly call 'vintage'), for use in a small scale context, as opposed to how the massive collections of museums are viewed and used. It also concerns 'personal meaning' of certain garments - a wedding dress for example...

Otherwise, in the practical world, all going fine. My design and make process is now described on the 'Services' page, and I'm off to buy some studio equipment on Monday. Beautiful silk satin fabric waiting to be cut, so I'd better press on.

And the sun is shining......

Bobbie
