She explores "the idea of jewelry taking different roles other than simply ornamentation(...), suggesting garment, jewelry taking over the body of the wearer, and jewelry breaking out of the traditional role of adornment. The shift in SCALE and the use of nontraditional material in jewelry making allowed me to challenge these ideas."

I am overwhelmed.

renewable clothing by Fernando Brízio

First he had vases and now dresses!!
Inginious custumization by placing colored felt-tip pens in the pockets of the dress its appearance changes over time.
Within an hour - to one and a half hours the colored ink bleeds into the fabric and creates a one-off designfor each occasion. The owner can then clean the dress and color it in a different way for each time they wear it.

Skin by Marisol Rodriguez for Bogota Factory

First to recommend

Description

... or happiness showing through your clothes!

Marisol Rodriguez conceived a design that would last throughout a woman’s pregnancy, minimizing what a mother-to-be would need to buy for herself.
There are three different two-tone dress styles in the collection, with either vertical or horizontal pleating. In every case the brighter of the two colors is the one revealed as the wearer’s belly expands.

As she was particularly troubled by high unemployment among women who are in their 50s, she and her mother created Bogota Factory to produce several items locally. Rodríguez’s Skin maternity line is one of Bogota Factory’s first offerings that unfortunatelly it's not yet available overseas or on the internet...!! (via contact Marisol)
