Dream a Little Dream

House of Raw's Dream Weavers were orignally commissioned for the Wound menswear show, last December at the Detroit Institute of Arts.  Made of twigs, hemp twine and sausage casing, these sculptures were collaboratively created by Nate Czarling, Ronit Pinto and Cristin Richard.  Currently, you can catch a glimpse of them in the windows of our favorite boutique, House of Chants(http://www.houseofchants.com/).

Saturday night, I dropped in at House of Chants (www.houseofchants.com) for the Eugenia Paul Trunk Show.   The dressing rooms were hustle bustle.  I had to try on something myself, after witnessing each garnment fit like a glove on every woman who tried one on.  The interesting choices of color and materials pulls you in, however it's the perfect fit that seals the deal.  This husband and wife duo make beautiful music in the form of ready to wear.   You can find some items online at their etsy shop, http://www.etsy.com/shop/eugeniapaul, however you may find more of a selection at House of Chants.  


I purchased an indigo lace top, which I sported later that evening.  You know it's a good piece when your boyfriend doesn't take note that you bought something new, yet compliments your look all night long.


Thank you Eugenia and Paul! It was a pleasure meeting you both.  Can't wait to see more of your impeccable work.
