Dress for the Chill

verysweetlife November 17, 2009

Warm and lightweight this dress is about the only item of clothing that doesn't get traded in for lounging clothes at the end of a long day. It's as comfortable and snugly as a grown-up can get away with! Comprised of a fitted bodice and a flare skirt it looks feminine. A new incarnation for fleece. (Note: The camera evidently distorts the blue hue, increasing the contrast. )

(Dress. Polyester fleece. October 2009)

Slow Style

Slow Style is an ongoing project by Sarah Kate Beaumont who since 2008 has designed and crafted every piece of her wardrobe. She has not purchased clothing since the project began.

Combining art and craftsmanship Beaumont’s project embraces individual style and sustainability. It seeks to empower others to question assumptions of consumerism with its inherent cycle of acquisition and disposal, and as an alternative, to explore self-reliance in our shared ecosystem.

Slow Style

Verysweetlife seeks to empower her audience to embrace authentic, individual style free from fast-fashion and consumerism, and to explore self-reliance in our shared ecosystem.

Since 2008 the artist Sarah Kate Beaumont has made what she wears, designing and assembling each piece. These are slow clothes, combining craftsmanship and art.
