……………………The use of BANDING could be interpreted in many ways………The two sweater dresses above are good examples. The solid Black dress to the left used banging to create a bare back with an “H” in the form of the straps. The dress to the right uses banding to divide colors, as Mondrian did in his paintings………The models are wearing triple link black resin earrings, bracelets, and thong flats with RED triangular pieces of leather on the instep are on the model at the right.

Louis, amazing and wish I had both! It looks also like
the banding might be sewn in to stabilize the knit and help keep it from stretching ?
The bandings were hand linked in on the color block dress so they had almost the same stretch as the dress, but yes they would to a certain degree keep it from stretching though that wasn’t the purpose.
Louis, Would it have been possible to re-create these gorgeous Sweater Dresses using Whisper Knit?
