vintage kimono – blue china
the earth is abundant with beautiful pieces that already exist — often discarded and waiting patiently for a new custodian to make them useful once again.
dear doris resuscitates forgotten cloths into exquisite new forms, dusting them off to be enjoyed once more as cute everyday loungewear. turning #tableware into #tablewear.
love me tender is drop III – a love letter to the tailors, dressmakers, home embroiderers of yesteryear – and the tender era of elvis. when time stood a little more still for slow stitches and slow dancing. made for prancing all day and into the moonlight.
