Prints with real leaves are always different, always exciting! I have been working on this topic since 2020 and still have a lot to learn. This is a very time-consuming technique and the result is not always successful.
Here I used a technique in which the color gradient is created by a negative cloth that has already been colored. Unfortunately, the leaf prints made of tannins, which react with the stain and whose ratio can vary depending on the plant/leaf/time, hardly came about in this experiment, despite the long cooking time.
Even though you can only see some leaf silhouettes if you look closely, I really like the overall impression of this dress. It has been purchased second-hand in new condition, has been given new energy and is now ready to find its way into your wardrobes to begin its second life.
