We. Can't. Get. Over. These. Gorgeous. Things.  While our favorites tend to rotate, these have the sort of staying power that comes from never failing to make our hearts beat a little bit faster.

More Horn Knuckle Rings in our online store.

I found this INCREDIBLE photo at my parent's house during a recent visit.  And was blown away by both the gorgeous textiles and my utter lack of memory of this high point in my extensive dress-up career.  Evidently I've always been drawn to pattern and texture!  Most of these fabrics look like they hail from India but the blue and white fabric of the skirt on the left has a distinct West African indigo cloth vibe.  Regardless, I need to get my hands on these textiles - they would be perfect for a new piece we're working on.  Lips are sealed for now but photos as soon as we nail it!
