Trying to sort thru all my files of old work and sketches and came across these oldies….feels like ages ago since i made these pieces…..

Norweigan fashion magazine VIXEN just did a feature on me for their current issue…out now…Jean-Paul Gaultier’s muse Omahyra Mota is on the cover and Sonia Rykiel is in it too!

They conjured up a fictional underwater tea party in the appliqued Chromium Dumb Belle universe with guests…Kaisik Wong (my love!) and Barbara Hulanicki, Merlin (of course), Gary Glitter and Alice Cooper eating Chromium Dumb Belle embroidered cakes…I would seat Kaisik and Merlin together for sure…. Barbara would be stoned to hell with her Sea Shades on….
