in keeping with the dollhouse theme from my last post, i present “My Town in My Home”, the product of a collaboration between knit artist Mafuyu and Japanese fashion designer Yoshikazu Yamagata. the series is made up of several knit houses that can be worn as clothing (Yamagata describes them as “home wear”). they are also intended to be fun for children. the series was displayed at the Arnehem Mode Biennale (in Holland) in 2007. i think they are incredibly playful, and very clever, as well as vibrant and visually pleasing. i have to say, i would totally wear one...
