Dressing your wound for fashion!


The bandage dress that gives aid to your fashion is back in scene from the 8Os with greater impact!

It was uncovered in 1989 and was as much a part of the epoch as Madonna or Backstreet Boys.

It recently walked the runways of New York and made a relaunch by the label Herve Leger's new designer,
Max Azria. They are the “it” fashion garment of the season, everyone’s going for it and it’s definitely one item on my list to have!

These scabbards-like frocks which sophisticatedly wraps around the body to fit each individual perfectly has earned its popularity with celebrities and supermodels who have all gone absolutely crazy for it! They have strapped the bodies of Victoria Beckham, Rihanna, and Mariah Carey etc…

Funnily, if you think about it, the concept did come from Egypt’s historical beings: ‘mummies’!!! They were the only ones to have been wrapped around with bandage cloth and look what our fashion experts have use that cultural existence to create something like the ‘bandage dress’ to be a hip, sassy fashion item on a female’s sculpture.

Our exceptional applause goes to the creators! Extraordinary!

Holla!
ooh! I worked in one Herve fashion show back in my teen days as a backstage dresser and MY GOD they were the most difficult things to zip up because it needs to be really tight! More like 'bondage' than 'bandage' dress :) nice but!
