Sabine Calkins

Sabine Calkins is an artist who works in many genres of art and design but was inspired to make this costume after a visit to her favorite place Sauvie's Island, near Portland, Oregon.
The picture has been damaged by the elements and this has added to its magic and beauty.

Howitz-Weissbach I





I love transparent voiles and the effects of layering that you get with them. This is the work of Howitz and Weissbach called 'High Street Robbery'.
I really like the lookbook for this collection as it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. This design label has a great morality and aesthetic, the garments are all manufactured locally to the highest possible quality.
