I have to say, I was totally overwhelmed when I wandered into their work studio... I was surrounded , from wall to wall with clothing... rails, bags, piles of it! Boxes filled with shoes , handbags and hats. I was in heaven! My first instinct was to plunge in, head first , digging for some kind of fabric treasure. With total restraint, I managed to contain myself and act at least kind of normal.
I thought I would blog about one of my re-fashion projects for Material Pleasures. I was given a bag full of dresses designed by Peuan Thai Studio. I'm told they were well known Canberra Designers in the 1960s who used the most beautiful silks sourced from Thailand.
The fabrics really are amazing, but the styles aren't favorable, even in the vintage market. So I will give them all a little love and attention to revamp them into something someone will treasure .
