Cody James Klippel Cody James Klippel Grace Wales Bonner Grace Wales Bonner "Sauvie Island is the story of a modern survivalist guarding the last bees on a rural Island just outside the city limits of Portland, Oregon. Removed from society, she crafts clothes to suit her daily tasks from fabric remnants found on her acreage Both functional garments and bias cut dresses are adorned instinctually in a multi-tonal patchwork of textures and prints. Salvaged leather and thrift store tights have been reworked into evening wear. Course natural fibres contrast with high-shine synthetic satin. Agrarian inspired prints play against advertising graphics and Americana. Her color palette is grounded in heavy earth tones but offers many flourishes of color derived from the ecosystem surrounding her homestead. Sauvie Island is a holistic portrait of a life lived on the fringe, where the synthetic meets the unrefined, tailored menswear blends with raw edge draped silk and a souvenir shop tote becomes a handbag."
