Noble Fibers

BE LINEN MOVIE from Benoit MILLOT on Vimeo.



you've probably not spent much time thinking or caring about fibers, but just in case you are interested, this is a short about the production and qualities of linen. I love learning about fibers/fabrics/textiles.. one of the interviewees in the film says about linen, "I love this fiber because I believe in it." this is the ultimate goal, to truly know and believe in what you do, to completely give yourself in to it. to classify a material as noble.. I absolutely love that.

these are probably not linen-based, but I have been thinking a lot about the qipaos that Maggie Cheung wears in In the Mood for Love. I wouldn't mind revamping my wardrobe to one that is strictly qipaos, as long as they look [and fit] like these. by the way, Maggie Cheung is a babe.
