About
This Tailor began 2012 as an experiment for journalist Dominique Fong. Here, she writes about the intersection of fashion, technology and business.
Her illustrations borrow from elements of whimsical fantasy – fairy tales, faraway lands and what dreamers might imagine in the haze of slumber. For example, the wall of an abandoned red brick building might inspire the texture of a bustier. These ideas, including plays on bold colors, unusual textures and industrial architecture, are reworked into conceptual garments an adventurous woman might wear.
