GSK Contemporary...

Whilst we were in London we saw another exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts about Fashion Identity. This was also very interesting my favourite piece being this stunner of a dress...


This dress was created by Susie Macmurray and is made from leather (symbolising skin) and 100,000 pins which she pierced through by hand.

The idea behind the dress is that the pins will entice you in but when you get closer you realise the violence within it. It was created in grief after the death of her husband.
