Fashion, whose main purpose is to show who you are, has given us some pretty amazing works of art in clothing design over the years. Sylvie Facon is a French creator and fashion designer who sews dresses from fabrics she has made. She pays so much attention to detail that her dresses would steal the show on any catwalk.

Facon’s designer gowns range from very romantic lacework to high fashion dresses made from book spines. This shows how versatile the dress designer skills are. Craftsmanship without imagination couldn’t come up with such dreamy and unique clothes, but Sylvie’s work is full of imagination.

All these dresses look fantastic, and this would be the perfect dress for you if you are a bookworm too!
