Elizabeth Odiorne hand dyed two yards of silk georgette for Starry Night 2022. Using fiber-reactive dyes and screen-printed with color discharge process, Odiorne created a textile that is saturated with brilliant color and layered with delicate organic patterns.
“My screen-printed textiles focus on exemplifying and magnifying the complexity of repeated forms. I am passionate about the time-honored tradition of screen-printing textiles and I take great pride in executing nearly all aspects of the process by hand.”
Victoria Walker hemmed the fabric by hand to transform this striking textile into a stunning finished garment. Using a hand-sewn ‘handkerchief’ stitch on each side, Vicky rolled the raw silk borders for a meticulously crafted shawl. Luxurious and versatile, this one-of-a-kind wrap is the perfect statement piece to bring home for yourself or as a gift for someone special in your life.
