I was tipped by M.T. on this incredible lace dress by IMPASSE DE LA DeFENSE by designer Karim Bonnet on Shop Curious. When I find a design like this I always look up all the designers other works I can find. And I loved what I found! All Bonnet´s works are beautiful and artistic designs full of DIY potential and inspiration. Keep a lookout for this guy as I think we´re going to be seeing more of him in the future.
Cream crocheted lace dress. Can be made from thrifted table cloths.
Crocheted lace collar. Quite an original design that features a long collar which can be worn around the neck, or over the head, like a crocheted hoodie.
