can-can


best in show sounded better than 1st place, so that's what i went with. i was being inspired by the more daring and colourful of the victorian tastes, as well as guavas. because the eyepatch is worn on a 3-dimensional surface, you can really see the beetle green backing fabric and deeper pink sheer ribbon peeking through from underneath the top layer; it made me think of petticoats and crinoline, which i love. this is one of my favorites.

  1. This idea of eye patches is great, you make amusing and interesting pieces. I almost wish I could wear them!

  2. thanks! it is a bit of a quandary! it would be fun to wear one, but the need for one would be not so much fun.
