Today might be my last day to be able to update my blog during my working hours. IT dept has implemented some internet blockage therefore working hours will be boring +++!! No more downloads for me!
Back to Isabel Toledo, designer & wife to Ruben Toledo (responsible for all the illustration for Nordstrom Ads) is currently exhibition all her work since 1988. That includes the famous canary yellow dress that she made for Michelle Obama, ring a bell?
The whole exhibition is divided to many sections, from geometric, suspension to liquid architecture. So you get smoky-fluid dress and some stiff to the neck. Apparently she doesn't use paper patterns and go straight to the fabric! My favourite piece will be the one she created collaborating with her husband, she design and he draws (as in the print on the dress, hand-painted).
