Best used for
Bringing nature, old things and handwork into soft everyday clothing rather than outdoor gear · Using dress to give a small shop or lifestyle image a sense of intimacy and unhurried time
Type
Set a small light serif or handwriting and leave the explanation sparse.
Composition
Layer cloth at different hem lengths so texture appears before the body's outline.
Material
Layer ecru, earth and moss natural fibers, leaving age visible in lace, leather and basketry.
Caution
Mushroom and woodland props are not enough. Layers, material, distance from the body and a way of life must form one system.
