I love how this girl has played down this evil little number by Alexander McQueen with a casual jeans and tee look.Look how a leather cloth can change an outfit and give to it a rock appeal! Her special and sophisticated look remainded me of the molded top worn by Lady Gaga at the Grammy awards.Her top is really extreme but in both looks i love the embossed and molded details,this is something that i want to replicate in some wearable way :)

What i'm looking at recently is leather molding. I did some reserches and surprisely it seems that it's enought to soak leather in hot water to make it moldable, then shape it with hands and let it dry ovenight.Fantastic,can't wait to experiment it.

Ultimamente sono molto interessata al modellamento della pelle. Facendo delle ricerche ho scoperto che è sufficiente immergere completamente la pelle in acqua calda per renderla modellabile poi tirarla con le mani per farle prendere la forma e poi semplicemente lasciarla asciugare per 24 ore.Fantastico, non vedo l'ora di tentare!
