Followers of the blog, might remember I spoke to Carin Mansfield, owner of in-ku shop and visionary behind the Universal Utility brand, back in June.
Well I had heard that the shop were hosting a special exhibition of the work of Forest + Found, a natural dyeing, woodworking, and quilting partnership between Max Bainbridge and Abigail Booth.
I don’t need much of an excuse to visit the shop anyway, it is definitely one of the most inspiring clothing stores in London, but I had heard about Forest + Found through the Chelsea College of Arts blog, and had been eager to see their work in the flesh. It definitely didn’t disappoint, their work is stunning, and fits perfectly with the aesthetic of Carin’s shop. It’s a perfect marriage.
There are many adjectives I could use to describe the exhibition, however none will match the experience of seeing it with your own eyes, so be sure to pay a visit to the shop yourself.
