The world of Anna Sui

I went to this exhibition at the Fashion and Textile Museum today.  It will full of dreamy 70's designs and I recognised a stripped skinny top that I had in my teens and also a beautiful furnishing fabric jacket from Granny takes a trip.  Photography was allowed, so I have a few to remind me of my youth.

The museum is a bit off the beaten track, but it hosts some fab shows.

World of Anna Sui exhibit

I enjoyed reading about Granny Takes a Trip.

I have some Anna Sui fabric waiting to be sewn into something. It's plummy purple and has black telephones on it! This one:

Doh, it should be this.  I have been wrestling with tax forms and my head is spinning.  0_0
