RAIN FASHION – workshop by Vahida Ramujkić

"so when you hear it thunder,
don't run under a tree..."
(Pennies from heaven)



On Monday, Marta and I had a pleasure of meeting lovely and so talented Vahida Ramujkic , designer behind the umbrella skirt project. We had a chance to make a chic skirt out of brought umbrella, with a little help from her professional assistance, ideal for rainy days or as a present.



Here is the exception from original text by Aviv Kruglanski:
"Autumn is here and after hot long summer clouds begin to gather. On rainy and windy days that are coming, textile ecology and GRAD deliver us a unique opportunity. The next time it pours, wait for it to calm down a bit, and walk out on the street fearless! It’s a perfect moment for umbrella “harvest”! We go out to “harvest”, “armed” with scissors or penknives in the raincoat. When we find a broken umbrella, we recover the fine material from the metal frame. At this point we are interested in the waterproof hexagonal material."

Here is the Winnie de Pooh skirt we made for Marta and she loved it:)

And now, just because we have this lovely skirt, I can even say sometimes: "I hope it rains":)
