More information

Laufabrauðshefðin er kveikjan að hönnun minni. Talið er að laufabrauðsmynstrið sé eitt af fáum séríslenskum mynstrum og eru elstu þekktu heimildir um laufabrauð frá því um 1736. Við meðhöndlun mynstursins á fatnaðinum hef ég sameinað gamla hefð og nútímalega hönnun og virðist mynstrið ekki síður njóta sín í efni en í þunnu deigi úr hveiti.

Concept:

The inspiration for my design is the traditional Icelandic decorative leaf cut bread. The cut leaf bread patterns are deemed to be amongst a few exclusively Icelandic patterns.  The oldest known reference to cut leaf bread is from 1736.

While designing the garments using these cut leaf patterns I have combined age old tradition with modern design with the outcome no less pleasing when worked in fabric than cut from a finely rolled flour dough.
