No Kak

Its been a lovely weekend, spent most of it lazing and yesterday I did my entry for the 'No Kak' competition. No Kak is a competition which focusses on environmentally friendly design. The theme is 'World Cup Fashion - Naturally Passionate and Fashionably Natural.' All entries must be designed using natural fabrics, dyes etc which do not have an adverse effect on the environment. I designed a little dress which is covered in coral coloured ruffles (layers of red and peach) in a fish scale pattern. The cropped jacket of hemp silk has a long 'bib' which is crocheted in mohair and embedded with pearls. All the fabrics used are completely harmless to the environment.
