just tossed my size 4 attachment drape cardigan in the dryer after hand washing it cold, took a huge chance but it shrinked exactly to the size I wanted it to.
so happy, cuz I bought the damn thing so oversized because I was dying to have one, but when it stretched it just didn't work at all, cuz it fit like a size 50, and im a 44/46, lol.
drape cardigans shall make a return now! :slayer:


This IMO is what a lot of SZ fits do wrong - if you want long and drapey it looks better when the fit is oversized too. I.e. it shouldn't fit in the shoulders. I hate that tight at the top then long and drapey rick thing. looks terribled IMO. Especially in that ****** thin black fabric that alot of people wear.

Haven't seen your attachment so hoping it's nice

it is sad that my Korean Joseph Gordon Levitt comment (one of the top-rated of the last day) is my top-rated comment of all time

LA COUTURE INCISIVA DI YUQING YIN said:


Chinese born designer Yiqing Ying, at the age of 26, has triggered a revolutionin the aesthetic of Haute Couture, through her deeply emotional approach to fashion.

There's a wall that separates a sculptor from a couturier. They both shape raw materials, usetheir hands as a vehicle for creativity, transform an object into a concept, however, they reach different results, the sculptor comes to the works of art, while the couturier to the dress. Sometimes this barrier gets thinner and the two figures start a silent dialogue that blends the disciplines together, creating wonderful hybrids that break every dividing lines. That's the case of Chinese born designer Yiqing Ying, who, at the age of 26, has triggered a revolutionin the aesthetic of Haute Couture, through her deeply emotional approach to fashion. Yin does not sculpts just the clothes, she sculpts the emptiness around the ************, enhancing the grace and the natural sensuality of the female figure. The Chinese born graduate of Paris' Ecole Nationale des Arts Decoratifs has already won many accolades since her graduation in 2009, including the prestigious the Andam Prize for First Collections that leaded to her debut presentation a month later. The most striking of Yin's creations istheir powerful impact upon the soul, producing a sort of aching tenderness, just like the sound of a violin or a harp. The Spring/Summer 2012, her second collection recently presented during Paris Haute Couture, is no exception. In a synthesis of opposites she combines the flowing with the sculpted, caging the liquid draperies that wrap the body like a second skin through staggering 3D designs, obtained by rock crystal embellishments and micro pleating. With a slightly baroque taste, her garments capture the viewer's thoughts for their perturbing beauty, involving him as the masterpieces do.

we were bored over winter break. she printed out a picture of lindsay lohan's mugshot, then cut it into a stencil, and then placed it on the shirt and painted the image on using the stencil.


cool... now need pix! you've got a nascent cottage industry on your hands... and just think how collectible they'll be when she's... you know...
