A Rainbow Umbrella! ☂️✨
Mandala’s filled with joy & colour! What’s your favourite amongst all?
Excited to share new work for New York Times bestselling and Eisner award-winning creator Jeff Lemire (Netflix’s Sweet Tooth, Black Hammer, Gideon Falls) — the publication design of a limited, and oversized hardcover edition collecting the bestselling MAZEBOOK series (published by Dark Horse Comics). Bringing the Mazebook to life through design, the publication features a cloth cover with embroidery, foil stamping, a color ribbon and gilding, signed tip-in plate and a rich backmatter section featuring illustrations by guest artists and Jeff’s notes on the creation of Mazebook.
This caps the creative journey we embarked on when I joined Jeff and Dark Horse Editor Daniel Chabon to develop the publication design and visual identity for the landmark, best-selling series.

Oscar de la Renta Beaded Tiered Black Gown
Aaaah, Haute Couture construction and sewing techniques in comparison to any Ready-to-Wear or Prêt-à-Porter gown!
This Oscar de la Renta gown displays an inside corset-bustier…and what neat craftsmanship we can see here!
Everything is covered, the interior part is completely separate but for the top seam.
What differentiates Haute Couture from everything else is the meticulous detail, additional inside parts/lining/… and lots of hand stitching.
