JONTY KRISTIAN MELLMANN - Nymph Dress
Yellow / khaki / brown dress with hood
Earthily toned 3-d patchworked - or you could just say organically pinned and draped -
dress moment for little creatures who dwell in the woods and capture you in their mushroom ring! You are now MINE! Thunderdome 96,DANCE or DIE! Made from a few charity shop and vinted bought tees, I began with the arms and eventually developed this dress you see before you here now - come plate with cut outs at the under-arms for breathability and sensuality. Draped hood with pretty little ears - meep meep - has a very extended cord/strap which can be tied in various ways to change the dress from open hooded, to closed hooded to tied behind the back for a yoke/stole feeling… aka, have fun with it and wear it as you will!
