Finding the way to fashion

I've been in love with the work of Elisabeth Lecourt for awhile now, but haven't brought it up here. Her work with maps and how she folds them is so amazing, I would love to own her work and either frame it, or wear it!

Me and my boyfriend are celebrating Valentine's Day tonight because we are cool - I'll show you my outfit from today tomorrow!

Happy Valentine's Day bloggers

lovelove, M.

For my textiles project, I'm making a dress out of the London Underground map and this person's work will fit perfectly with my research/development.
You are a genius!
