Dress by Barney Cheng
Coco Chanel once quipped 'Only those with no memory insist on their originality.' Fashion is about beauty, creativity and style but above all else, it is a barometer of social change, a comment on our current state of mind. To be creative one does not always have to start from scratch. The world wishes for but does not need another superbly cut tee shirt but the desire to create is there, so for EcoChic, Barney Cheng introduces Couture Recycling!
Using pieces from fashionistas' over-stuffed wardrobes, past favourites that have over time been relegated to the back of one's closet - in this case a glam McQueen copper sequin tank top, a geometric print Monique L'huillier halter dress and a very delicate Alberta Ferretti silk chiffon sheath - these in Barney's hands have been given a new lease of life and have been re-fashioned into an asymmetrical single shoulder empire line Glamazon sheath: a very fine example of Responsible Luxury!
Size 4-8, paillettes are on a stretch cotton/silk ground, very forgiving and comfortable.
Also included is a vintage brocade clutch bag by Kotur and some Origins Organics goodies.
