There’s not much that can be written about the Painswick’s Wearable Art event that the photographs can’t communicate far far better. So we thought we’d let the art (and the models) speak for themselves...

Juliet Davenport presents the Good Energy Primary School Prize to runner-up Esme Heath and her Dream Machine themed design 'Moon and Stars'.

Winner in the Good Energy Primary School category 'Sunset Nuts and Bolts' in the Dream Machine theme. Designed by Sally Knowles and modelled by Helena Cox.

With Painswick famous for its Rococo Garden many of the designs used this as inspiration; recycling and up-cycling also had a significant (and striking) presence. One outfit was made entirely from old tea bags, and another - awarded Best in Show - from newspapers...  

A stylish bit of upcycling too...
