Lampshade Skirts - Retreat




Lampshade Skirts - Retreat
A lampshade is more than a source of light. It is an object that shapes the atmosphere of a room, even when the light is off.
These handmade textile skirts are designed to dress lampshades, giving them a new identity and a second skin.
Each piece is an exploration of fabric, colour, pattern and texture, combining hand-stamping, painting, collage and stitching. Made using carefully selected fabrics, including remnants from interior design projects, each skirt brings together different techniques and unexpected details.
There is a playful dialogue between the contemporary and the traditional, the understated and the exuberant. A little rebellion, a touch of extravagance, and always a sense of individuality.
Designed to transform an existing lampshade rather than replace it, these pieces bring a different personality to an everyday object.
Because even light deserves to get dressed.
