About Boho Banjo art to wear

I’ve been a multi media and textile artist for 20 years but as a younger woman I trained to be a fashion industry pattern maker. Recently I updated my 30 year old patternmaking skills to the contemporary digital age and began publishing pdf patterns. As a full figured middle aged woman I’ve been frustrated in my search to find artistically styled clothes that were comfortable to wear and flattered my shape.

I started the business “Boho Banjo art to wear” based on my desire to offer a style of clothing that is loose, relatively unstructured and that moves on the body when worn. Clothing that is designed for comfort and practical ease of movement but still shows off the wearers individuality through innovative cut, embellishment, detailing, colour, pattern and design.

About Me

My photo
Pearl Red Moon
Mixed media artist who believes life is too short to wear boring clothes. In the 1970s I caught the last wave of the "Hippie" era and was deeply influenced by the style aesthetics of that generation. I admired designers like Mary Quant and Emilio Pucci with their colour block dresses, pop art fabrics and loose A line shifts, then moving into the late 1980s there were the romantic designers like Bill Gibb and Zandra Rhodes with their ethnic referenced prints, "peasant" style dresses and bohemian whimsy. I describe my own style as a mashup of hippie, bohemian, tribal/oriental/eastern, alternative arty with a bit of goth thrown in. Theres little affordable or flattering in boutiques for curvy creatives and the pattern companies mainly cater for the slender figure and conservative styling. In my researches to find something practical, flattering and less than conventional I was attracted to the contemporary Japanese designers such as Junya Watanabe and the street style aesthetic known as “Lagenlook” (literally – layered look). These influences were so inspiring that I started designing and selling a range of pdf patterns for those who yearn for something different and artistic.
