Silk Wedding Dress Farm//Michelle HO [Y3]





There are few forms of human ritual as important as those attached to the clothes we wear. Beginning with an analysis of how the gentlemen's tailors operate in Savile Row, an approach to architecture which includes woven and threaded spaces emerged during the course of research. As part of the lively multicultural garment district next to Finsbury Park Station, a new silk farm is inserted, with the worms being bred in tall, elegant timber lattice towers. Overhead shading is provided by thin webs of spun silk cables, under which customers can peruse and choose their favourite wedding dress for that special day. These dresses will also become cherished heirlooms to be passed down the generations.

  1. I should perhaps have renamed the month of May as "the month of Migis" as I was lucky enough to have not one, not two, but three weddings with three equally fabulous couples at Migis Lodge on Sebago Lake. Not only is Migis the best wedding venue in the whole of Maine, it's also less than one mile from our home in Maine so it's one of my very favorite places to photograph at!
