Manon Gignoux

I’ve been looking for ideas of ways to use the scraps from our textile items that are being used in our Eco-Quilts and while I’ve been staring at Issue 22 of Selvedge, and always stopping to stare and soak in this image, it wasn’t until today I did a little research.

Manon Gignoux, a French Stylist, Artist with incredible vision for re-purposing clothing and textiles has an incredible portfolio.

Her work is proof that re-purposed items can be well designed, sophisticated and elegant. Her work comes from studying people and how they wear clothing, and is quite astounding. I can’t find a piece I dislike, and I am in love with her flowers and necklaces, and well, everything. Please visit her site. The images are just breathtaking.

  • This is so beautiful and so inspiring. I just bought some fabric yesterday with hopes to make clothes. I can’t wait to look at her work and get motivated.
