How To Turn An Old Dress Into A New Dress For An Exhibition


Hello everyone! It is Obon hloiday in Japan. It is the Lantern Festival holidays when we pray for the deceased. I can't' go home, so I went the Isamu Noguchi exhibition. He is my hero, so I looked for a dress which is suitable for the exhibition on some online shops. I found two black dresses, but I thought I made a new one like them from clothes in my closet. It was a wonderful idea!
みなさま、こんにちは。今週はお盆ですね。今年も実家へ帰れないので、私のヒーロー、イサム・ノグチの展覧会へ行ってきました。イサム・ノグチのシンプルでダイナミックな作品に似合うような黒のワンピースをお気に入りのオンラインショップで探しました。2着、理想に近いものを見つけましたが、クローゼットにあるもので作れたので買い物するのはやめました。




















The Isamu Noguchi: Ways of Discovery exhibition is really beautiful! I am so happy yo see an installation of 150 “Akari” lamps and Noguchi’s Mure stone sculptures. I felt minimal, chic, lovely and intense atmosphere around his works. After the exhibition, I took photos how making the black dress! Additionally, I drew about it at home. How go you feel about Isamu Noguchi? Have you seen his sculptures?

展覧会、イサム・ノグチ発見の道は、光の彫刻「あかり」150灯のインスタレーションを体験できたこと、晩年の石彫を見れました。牟礼のイサム・ノグチ庭園美術館へずっと行きたかったので、東京で見れるなんて夢のようでした。イサム・ノグチの作品は上品で可愛らしい緊張感が魅力です。たまに泣けてくるところも。宇宙を行ったり来たりしているような気分になれる安心感。後半のワンピースの写真は、この日のワンピースの仕組みが分かるように撮影しました。まだ分かりづらいかもと思い最後に図解も描いてみました。それでは来週もお楽しみに♡

  2. Wow, I loved how you turned this old dress into a new one by wrapping it around your waist it and turning it into a skirt..... and then pairing it with a black top. You're a style genius!
    You look beautiful! Very elegant and chic styling...very Parisian.

  3. The artistic fashion design and talented tailoring of that dress look fabulous.
    I especially love the very feminine appearance of the black LPA top incorporated with the black tricot Comme de Garcons dress combine for a demure, elegant and beautiful look.
    I also like the appearance of the Kate Spade bag you accessorised your outfit with.
    I had never seen photographs of Isamu Noguchi's sculptures before.
    The art exhibition looks fascinating.

  5. Hey Akiko, hope you had a fantastic week.

    As usual you surprise me with your creatinons and with your strollings around the city, this place looks impressive and full of contemporary art, but first time I hear about Isamu Noguchi, but the creations displayed here are breathtaking!

    On the other side and talking about the dress, what a magnificent purchase! I would love to own a piece by Comme des garçons one day in the future, they look so versatile and the idea of turning your clothes into something new honestly sounds amazing, and you also matched it with the right accessories :) Loved your illustration and how to turn out your dress into something new!
