I'm almost to the point where I have enough clothes that I won't have to sew new things as often, and can re-print the existing garments more often. I'm eager to get to the part where I'm just altering and re-wearing the same set of dresses so that I can get a good buildup of ink happening on them. Some of the earlier separates will likely get phased out of the project as I figure out which pieces are better for printing on and which pieces will be more difficult to exhibit later; ideally I'd like to have ten to fourteen dresses and just cycle through them, watching the ink layers accumulate.

I love this project so much. I've been a lurker but finally had to comment. It's amazing that your clothes are actually pretty badass, on top of being project oriented. This dress, as it is today, I love. LOVE. In all seriousness, you're inspiring me to go back to art school.

I really, really like that dress. Where did you get the pattern? I know this isn't a fashion project, so I hope my questions don't sound flippant -- I very much appreciate the printing aspects of your wardrobe-as-project, I just also like a fair bit of your patterning!

What will you do with the stuff you phase out of the project?
