Porcelain Clothes by Li Xiaofeng

Posted by Alex in Arts & Crafts, Pictures on December 24, 2008 at 2:38 pm


Chinese artist Li Xiaofeng created these "porcelain clothings" out of pieces of bowls and dinner plates. What’s even more remarkable is that you can actually wear them!

He sews ancient fragments of porcelain onto leather undergarments to create full-length dresses and men’s jackets — complete with neckties. The ‘clothes’ open on the sides or back, just like any other garment and can be worn!

    They are beautiful, but I bet they are loud. One probably wouldn't wear them to midnight mass.

    Are they machine washable? or do I put them in the dishwasher?

    As long as the pieces are small enough, it'd be cool to see this worn on someone, but not me of course.
