minimal dress 2009
-----------------------------------------------------
'May I ask how many costumes she wears out each year?'
'My dear sir, the clothing of a lady does not wear out through her wearing of it, but through her being seen in it. ' Richard Steele
Our clothes are more quickly discarded as a result of changing fashion than because of wear and tear. The consumption of the clothing industry is gigantic as a result. Minimal dress is a concept clothing project, in which a dress is minimized to a few threads at the most. They are whispier than whispy, yet they remain feminine dresses.
