I’ve been meaning to post this YouTube video.  This is an interesting mini-lecture on the art and design of Mariano Fortuny.  Enjoy!

The unwrapping of the dress at the end reminds me of the several crinkle skirts I made many fashion seasons ago.  I used to spritz them with water, twist and insert into the leg of a panty hose, hanging it in the closet until the next time I wanted to wear the skirt.
