anandamayi arnold

Last week I saw Amandamayi's paper dresses at Fort Point. What amazing craftsmanship. These are not only works of art, but they are art pieces made for wearing. I would have loved to see them on the Fiesta Queens at the celebration... though I did find a video by KQED that shows Anandamayi modeling her dresses. It's great to see them in motion and more peeks of her work environment. She's pretty cute in her paper frocks! If you watch the video, her segment starts around 46 seconds in. Worth seeing.

Anandamayi Arnold's paper dresses at Fort Point, San Francisco, until October 28, 2012

Great video. I love her bare foot on the sewing pedal. I didn't make it last week... Luckily I have until at least 9/3.
